What is the area of the triangle shown? (1 point)
A - 30 square inches
B - 60 square inches
C - 120 square inches
D - 26 square inches
To calculate the area of a triangle, you would use the formula:
Area = (base x height) / 2
In the triangle shown, the base is 10 inches and the height is 6 inches.
Plugging those values into the formula:
Area = (10 x 6) / 2
Area = 60 / 2
Area = 30 square inches
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A - 30 square inches
