Use the area of a triangle formula to find the area of a triangle with a base of 17 yards and a height of 6 yards.
(1 point)
To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula:
Area = 0.5 x base x height
Given that the base is 17 yards and the height is 6 yards, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Area = 0.5 x 17 x 6
Area = 0.5 x 102
Area = 51 square yards
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 51 square yards.
