Which statement best describes the area of the triangle shown below?

A coordinate grid is shown with a triangle.. The base is 4 units, and the height is 4 units.

A. It is one-half the area of a rectangle of length 4 units and width 2 units.

B. It is one-half the area of a square of side length 4 units.

C. It is twice the area of a rectangle of length 4 units and width 2 units.

D. It is twice the area of a square of side length 4 units.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is B. It is one-half the area of a square of side length 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a coordinate grid shown with the triangle of measurements with base 4 units and height also 4 units.

We have to find the area of a triangle which can be calculated as

[tex]{\Rightarrow{\sf{Area\:=\:\frac{1}{2}\:x\:base\:x\:height}[/tex]

[tex]{\Rightarrow{\sf{Area\:=\:\frac{1}{2}\:x\:4\:x\:4}[/tex]

we have to choose the statement that describes the area of the triangle evaluate above.
