I will rate you brainliest/ / / Tonicha is creating two triangular gardens in her backyard. The total area of each triangle varies jointly with the length of the triangle's base and the height. The area of the smaller triangle is 16 square feet. It has a base that is 8 feet in length and the height is 4 feet. What is the area of the larger triangle when its base is 12 feet in length and its height is 8 feet?

Answer:

The area of larger triangle is 48 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the area of triangle formula is A = 1/2 × base × height. Then, you have to substitute the following values :

[tex]area = \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h[/tex]

[tex]let \: b = 12,h = 8[/tex]

[tex]area = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 8[/tex]

[tex]area = \frac{1}{2} \times 96[/tex]

[tex]area = 48 \: {feet}^{2} [/tex]

Given that;

A∞bh

A=kbh. where k is a constant

For smaller triangle

A=kbh

16=8(4)k

16=32k

k=½

For bigger triangle

A=kbh

Where k=½ , b= 12 and h=8

A=½(12)8

A=48 square feet
