Work out the area of a triangle with a height of 6m and a base length of 14m

Verified Answer :

Area of a triangle = \(\frac{\text{Base} \times \text{Height}}{2}\)

Base = 14m 
Height = 6m 

(14m x 6m)/2 = (84m^2) / 2 = 42m^2

We know, area of a triangle = 1/2 b h
Here, b = 14
h = 6

Substitute their values in expression,
Area = 1/2 14 6
Area = 1/2 * 84
Area = 42 m²

So, your final answer is 42 m²

Hope this helps!
