What is the area of a triangle with a base of 4 inches and a height of 17 inches?

Area of triangle = 34 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Base = 4 inches

Height = 17 inches

The required area of the ∆:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

By using Formula, A = 1/2 * bh

⇒ ar(∆) = 1/2 × 4 × 17 inch²

⇒ ar(∆) = 2 × 17 inch²

⇒ ar(∆) = 34 inch²

Thus, The Area of Required ∆ is 34 inch²

check the picture below.

well, the angle at the vertex d is clearly not a right-angle, let's check for the one at the vertex f which does look like,   however if it's indeed, that means ef is perpendicular to df, in which case their slopes will be negative reciprocal of each other.

so the negative reciprocal of the slope of ef is 1, however the slope of df is not 1, is 1/2, so nope, they're not perpendicular lines.

what the hell man, i just want the points lol
