Answer to Problem 11.6.1EP

The area of the given triangle is $27m^2$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  

Concept Used:

The area of the triangle is given by the following expression:

  $A=\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h$

Where,

Base of the triangle: $b$

The height of the triangle: $h$

Calculation:

The area of the given triangle is calculated as:

  $A=\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h$

Put the given data in the above formula:

  $\begin{array}{l}A=\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h\\ A=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 9\\ A=27m^2\end{array}$

Conclusion:

Hence, the area of the given triangle is $A=27m^2$ .
