Michelle and her father want to make a triangular sail for their boat. The height of the sail will be 24 ft., and the base will be 18 ft. What will be the area of the sail in square feet?

The area of the triangular sail is 216 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sail is triangular, we solve the area using the area of a triangle

Area of triangle = 1/2 of base × height

base is 18 and height is 24

Area = 1/2 × 18 × 24

= 9×24

= 216 ft²

c. prove the lengths are the same.

step-by-step explanation:

you need to prove the segments are congruent. congruent segments have the same length. find the lengths of the segments using the distance formula, and compare them.

answer: c. prove the lengths are the same.

8

step-by-step explanation:

this is a subtraction problem.

10 - 2 = 8
