A triangle has a base of 4 inches and a height of 6 inches.

What is the area of the triangle?

a. 10 in2

b. 12 in2

c. 20 in2

d. 24 in2

The answer to your question is the letter b. 12 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

base = 4 in

height = 6 in

Formula

Area = 1/2 base x height

To solve this problem substitute the values in the formula and simplify.

Substitution

Area = 1/2 (4 in)(6 in)

Simplification

Area = 1/2 (24in²)

Result

Area = 12 in²

)

3+11

14

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
