How do you find the area of a triangle when the height is 6 yards and the base of 2 yards?

area of triangle = o.5 x b x h

6 yards is your answer

Area of a triangle is base x height / 2. First, 6 x 2 is 12. Then you divide by 2 with an outcome of 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

It has an area of 6 yards

y = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that y varies directly with x

That is, y∝x

Convert y∝x to a full equation by introducing a constant k to the right hand side.

Therefore, y = kx

Given that y = 10 and x = 20

Substitute y and x in the equation above. We have;

10 = k(20)

10 = 20k

20k = 10

k = 10/20

k = 0.5

Since k = 0.5, the equation y = kx becomes y = 0.5x

Now, to find y if x = 15, substitute x in equation y = 0.5x

Therefore, y = 0.5(15)

y = 7.5
