Question

If the base of a triangle is 24cm and height is twice the base, what will be the area of the triangle in $c{m}^2$?

• A. $566c{m}^2$
• B. $766c{m}^2$
• C. $676c{m}^2$
• D. $576c{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is D

$576c{m}^2$

Area of triangle $=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\times \text{base}\times height$

Area $=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\times 24\times 48=576c{m}^2$
