Exercise 12 Page 377

Use the formula for area of a triangle.

200in^2

Practice makes perfect

We will use the formula for calculating the area of a triangle. A=1/2bh Now we substitute the value of the base, b=25in, and the value of the height, h=16in, into the formula to calculate A.

A=1/2bh
A=1/2( 25)( 16)
A=1/2* 16* 25
A=16/2* 25
A=8* 25
A=200

The area of the triangle is 200in^2.
