Find the area of this triangle, the front bottom base is 4 feet and the middle length is 2 feet
To find the area of a triangle, you can use the formula:
Area = (base * height) / 2
In this case, the front bottom base is 4 feet and the middle length is 2 feet. To find the height, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, as the height forms the right angle with the middle length and the front bottom base.
Let's denote the height as h. Then, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find h:
h^2 = (4/2)^2 + 2^2
h^2 = 2^2 + 2^2
h^2 = 4 + 4
h^2 = 8
h = sqrt(8)
h = 2.83 feet
Now, we can find the area of the triangle:
Area = (4 * 2.83) / 2
Area = 11.32 square feet
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 11.32 square feet.
