The formula for finding the area of a triangle is?
Term
 10 cm x 10 cm divided by 2 = 50 cm2
Definition
The base of a triangle is 10 cm and the height is 10cm. Calculate the area:
Term

The height is 8 cm.

1/2 the Base x Height = Area of a Triangle

1/2 of 10 cm x Height (H) = 40 cm2

5 cm x H = 40 cm2

H = 8 cm

Definition

The area of a triangle is 40 cm2

The base was 10 cm.

Calculate the height:

 

Term

GHI:   Base = 10 cm  Height = 5 cm

Does not have an area of

50 cm2

Definition

Which triangle can not have an area of 50 cm2?ABC:   Base = 10 cm  Height = 10 cm

DEF:   Base = 20 cm  Height = 5 cm

GHI:   Base = 10 cm  Height = 5 cm

JKL:    Base = 25 cm  Height = 4 cm

 

 

Term

Definition

To convert m2 to cm2 you need to multiply by:

100?

1 000?

10 000?

100 000?

Term

 1 m by 1 m = 1 m2

1 m2 = 10 000 cm2

 

or convert 1 m x 1 m to 100 cm x 100 cm

100 cm x 100 cm = 10 000 cm2
