Manchu has drawn a
rectangle with a base of
24 cm and an area of
336 cm². He cuts the
rectangle as shown to make two triangles.
What are the height and area of each
triangle?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Height of each triangle: 14cm

Area of each triangle: 168cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the base of the area is 24. Lets find the height.

336 ÷ 24 = 14

If he makes two triangles out of the rectangle that just means he cuts it in half.

To find the area of one triangle lets do:

336 ÷ 2 = 168

Let's double check our answer:

(14 × 24) ÷ 2 = 168

Seems great!
