Find the area of a triangle with base of 15m and altitude of 12m.

Solution:

Given: Base of triangle b = 15m and altitude h =12m

The area of a triangle is defined as the total space occupied by the three sides of a triangle in a 2-dimensional plane. 

We know that area of a triangle with base b and height h is given by (bh)/2

Area = (15)(12)/2

Area = 180/2

Area = 90 sq.m

Find the area of a triangle with base of 15m and altitude of 12m.

Summary:

The area of a triangle with a base of 15m and altitude of 12m is 90 sq.m
