The base of a triangle is represented by (2x − 6) and the height by (x − 2). which polynomial expression best represents the area of the triangle? a) x2 + 5x + 6 b) x2 − 5x + 6 c) x2 − 5x − 6 d) 2x2 + 10x + 12

x² - 5x + 6 → B

the area of a triangle (A) = × base × height

A = (2x - 6)(x - 2) → ( expand using FOIL)

A = (2x² - 10x + 12) = x² - 5x + 6

not sure but it may be b, as i said i'm not sure.
