The city is planning to plant a certain number of trees for every square meter of a
triangle-shaped park. Compose a rectangle to find the area of the park. What is
the area of the park in square meters?
To find the area of the park, we need to first find the base and height of the triangle-shaped park.
From the image, we can see that the base of the park is 8 meters and the height of the park is 25.3 meters.
The formula for finding the area of a triangle is:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
So, the area of the park is:
Area = 1/2 * 8 * 25.3
Area = 101.2 square meters
Therefore, the area of the park is 101.2 square meters.
