George makes a 1/25
scale drawing of a triangular sail. The triangle in his drawing is 2 feet high with a base of 1 foot. What is the area of the sail?(1 point)
square feet
The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula: area = 1/2 * base * height.
Given that the height of the triangular sail in the drawing is 2 feet and the base is 1 foot, we can substitute these values into the formula:
Area = 1/2 * 1 foot * 2 feet
Area = 1 square foot
Therefore, the area of the sail in the 1/25 scale drawing is 1 square foot.
