Question

find the area of the geometric figure. the area of the geometric figure is

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula for triangle area

The formula for the area of a triangle is $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$, where $b$ is the base and $h$ is the height.

Step2: Determine base and height values

From the figure, the base $b = 6$ yd and the height $h=8$ yd.

Step3: Substitute values into formula

$A=\frac{1}{2}\times6\times8$.
First, calculate $6\times8 = 48$. Then, $\frac{1}{2}\times48=24$ square - yards.

Answer:

24 square yards
