The dimensions of triangle A are twice the dimensions of triangle B. The area of triangle B is 18 cm2. What is the area of triangle A?

Respuesta :

To find the area of Triangle A using the information given you will start with the area of Triangle B and double EACH dimension (x2 x2).  This results in an area that is 4 times bigger.

If the area of Triangle B is 18 cm^2, then the area of Triangle A is 18 x 4 or 72 cm ^2.

The area of Triangle A is 72 square centimeters.

Answer:

A = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2A = B

B = 18 cm2

2A = 18

A = 18 / 2

A = 9
