For an art project you were using a piece of cloth that is cut out in the shape of a right triangle what is the area of the cloth that the measurements are 8 in by 8 in by 11.3 in
To find the area of a right triangle, you can use the formula:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
In this case, the base of the right triangle is 8 inches and the height is 11.3 inches. Plugging these values into the formula:
Area = 1/2 * 8 * 11.3
Area = 4 * 11.3
Area = 45.2 square inches
Therefore, the area of the cloth is 45.2 square inches.
