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? Right triangle 25.3 and 8 as side
To find the area of the triangle-shaped park, we need to first calculate the area of the rectangle that can encompass the triangle.
Let's label the sides of the triangle as follows:
Base (b) = 25.3 m
Height (h) = 8 m
The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Therefore, the area of the triangle-shaped park = 1/2 * 25.3 * 8 = 101.2 square meters.
