Question

$ABCD$ rectangle with $AB=8cm,BC=16cm$ and $AE=4cm$. Find the area of $△BCE$.

• A. $64c{m}^2$
• B. $24c{m}^2$
• C. $84c{m}^2$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A $64c{m}^2$

For triangle $\Delta BCE$, base$=16cm$ and height$=8cm$.

So area$=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height=\frac{1}{2}\times 16\times 8=64c{m}^2$
