Answer:
A = (1/2) * b * h
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as obtuse, scalene, right angle, equilateral and isosceles triangle.
The area of a triangle is half the product of the base of the triangle and the triangle height. The area is given by the formula:
A = (1/2) * b * h
A = (1/2)bh = 0.5bh
Where A is the area of the triangle, b is the bae of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle.
5/10 because it is equivalent to 1/2
So the answer is 5/10
Answer:
Graph W only. But be careful it is not directly proporotional.

Answer:
252.8 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing side of the right triangle can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:
s² = 20² -16² = 400 -256 = 144
s = 12 . . . . cm
The area of a right triangle is more easily found using the traditional area formula:
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(12 cm)(16 cm) = 96 cm² (left-side triangle)
The area of the triangle on the right can be found from Heron's formula. The semiperimeter is ...
s = (16 +20 +23)/2 = 29.5
The area is ...
A = √(29.5(29.5 -16)(29.5 -20)(29.5 -23)) = √(29.5·13.5·9.5·6.5)
A = √24591.9375 ≈ 156.818 . . . . . cm² (right-side triangle)
Then the total area of the figure is ...
A = 96 cm² +156.818 cm² = 252.818 cm² . . . . total area
The area of triangle BMN is 124.7 square centimeter.
<h3>What are similar triangles?</h3>
Similar triangles are triangles that their corresponding angles are equal and the ratio of their corresponding lengths are equal. They are often similar When at least Two angles are equal or The ratio of any corresponding lengths are same.
Analysis:
AB = AC = BC = 50cm
AH = AC/2 = 50/2 = 25cm
From Δ ABH, using Pythagoras theorem to find BH.
= -
= -
= 2500 - 625
= 1875
BH = = 43.3cm
ΔBMN and BHC are similar,
so, BM/BH = MN/HC
BM/43.3 = 12/25
25BM = 12 X 43.3
BM = 519.6/25 = 20.78cm
Area of ΔBMN
= 1/2(MN)(BM) = 1/2 x 12 x 20.78 = 124.7 square centimeter
