Area of Triangles

Front

What is the formula to find the area of a triangle?

Back

A = 1/2 * b * h, where b is the base and h is the height.

Front

If a triangle has a base of 6 mm and a height of 4 mm, what is its area?

Back

12 mm²

Front

True or False: The formula A = 1/2 * b * h can be used for all triangles.

Back

True

Front

What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 ft and a height of 6 ft?

Back

Front

How do you find the area of a triangle?

Front

What does 'base' refer to in the context of a triangle?

Back

The bottom side of the triangle, which can be any one of its sides.

Front

What does 'height' refer to in the context of a triangle?

Back

The perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex.

Front

If the base of a triangle is doubled, how does that affect the area?

Back

The area also doubles, assuming the height remains the same.

Front

If the height of a triangle is halved, how does that affect the area?

Back

The area is also halved, assuming the base remains the same.
