What is the formula for the area of a triangle?

Back

The area of a triangle is given by the formula: \( A = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height \) where 'base' is the length of the base and 'height' is the perpendicular height from the base to the opposite vertex.

What is the area of a trapezoid with bases of 5 cm and 7 cm, and a height of 4 cm?

Back

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula: \( A = \frac{1}{2} \times (base_1 + base_2) \times height \). Thus, \( A = \frac{1}{2} \times (5 + 7) \times 4 = 24 \ cm^2 \).

What is the area of a triangle with sides of 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm?

Back

Using Heron's formula, first calculate the semi-perimeter: \( s = \frac{6 + 8 + 10}{2} = 12 \). Then, the area is \( A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} = \sqrt{12(12-6)(12-8)(12-10)} = \sqrt{12 \times 6 \times 4 \times 2} = 24 \ cm^2 \).
