Question

Сторона треугольника равна 12см а высота проведенная к ней в три раза меньше высоты найдите площадь треугольника

Answer 1

Calculation of the Triangle's Area

To find the area of a triangle, we can use the formula:

Area = (base * height) / 2

Given that the side of the triangle is 12 cm and the height drawn to it is three times smaller, we can calculate the height of the triangle as follows:

Height = (1/3) * height

Substituting the values into the formula, we have:

Area = (12 * (1/3) * height) / 2

Simplifying the equation, we get:

Area = (4 * height) / 2

Area = 2 * height

Now, we need to find the value of the height. Unfortunately, the exact value of the height is not provided in the question. However, we can still proceed with the calculation by using a variable to represent the height.

Let's assume the height of the triangle is 'h'. Substituting this value into the equation, we have:

Area = 2 * h

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 2h square units.

Please note that without the exact value of the height, we cannot determine the numerical value of the triangle's area.
