Question

If a square having dimesnion 2m x 2m is cut into two equal triangles then what will be the area of each triangle?

• A. 2 $m^2$
• B. 4 $m^2$
• C. 6 $m^2$
• D. 8 $m^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2 $m^2$

Area of the square = 2m x 2m = 4 $m^2$
Area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ area of the square
Area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ x 4 $m^2$
= 2 $m^2$
