Question

If the base of a triangle is 8 cm and height is 4 cm, what is its area?

• A. $12c{m}^2$
• B. $16c{m}^2$
• C. $32c{m}^2$
• D. $4c{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $16c{m}^2$

We know that formula for area of triangle

= $\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height$

= $\frac{1}{2}\times 8\times 4$

= $16c{m}^2$
