What is the area of the triangle?
A right triangle with side lengths 3.6 feet, 6 feet, and 4.8 feet. The base is 4.8 feet and the height is 3.6 feet.
8.64 feet squared
10.8 feet squared
14.4 feet squared
17.28 feet squared

8.64 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is 1/2(bh) or base * height divided by 2,

So first multiply 4.8 and 3.6

(4.8) (3.6) = 17.28

Then divide that by 2

17.28/2 = 8.64

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.
