Question 2 of 5

Triangle Geometry

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.

$10$\frac{1}{2}$$

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 7, what is the area?

	10$\frac{1}{2}$
	65
	45$\frac{1}{2}$
	50

	10\(\frac{1}{2}\)
	65
	45\(\frac{1}{2}\)
	50
