Cason Baker · Answer 1

A = 7.5 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 5*3

A = 1/2 * 15

A = 15/2

A = 7.5 cm^2

Reed Vasquez · Answer 2

To find the area of a triangle, you do base x height, and then divide that by 2.

So in our case, this would be:

(5 * 3) : 2

15 : 2

= 7.5

The area of the triangle is 7.5cm².
