Question

If the base of a triangle is $4xcm$ and its altitude is $3cm$,then the area of the given triangle is

• A. $2xc{m}^2$
• B. $6xc{m}^2$
• C. $4xc{m}^2$
• D. $12xc{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $6xc{m}^2$

Area of triangle is given by $\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h$
$=\frac{1}{2}\times 4x\times 3$
$=2x\times 3$
$=6xc{m}^2$
