What is the area of a triangle that has a base of 3 feet and a height of 6 feet? a: 18 ft^2 b: 18 ft c: 9 ft^ 2 d: 4.5 ft^2

The formula of area of triangle is given by

Where b is the base and h is the height .

In the given question, base ,b = 3 feet

Height, h= 6 feet

Substituting the values of b and h in the formula, we will get

Correct option is C .

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36

step-by-step explanation:

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
