Area of a Triangle Calculator

In this article let me help you on area of a triangle calculator. Before i take you through on this let me give a brief introduction to area and triangle and how does it help in mathematics.

Area:
The size of a surface is also known as area of the shape. The amount of space within the boundary of a flat (2-dimensional) object such as a triangle or circle. These areas are all the same.

Triangle:
We know that triangle has three sides. And each side has different lengths . And the sides and angles are not equal.

Examples of Area of Triangle Help:

Following example will help you understand the problem on steb step basis. and this could also help you on obtuse triangle.

* Formula for area of triangle = ½ bh.

Here b represent the base of a triangle

h represent the height of a triangle .

Example 1:

Find the area of triangle with base 5 cm and height 8 cm?

Solution:

Step 1: we know that area of triangle = ½ bh.

Step 2: Substitute base and height value in formula.

Step 3: Therefore we get ½ *8 *5 .

Step 4: The area of triangle = 20 cm 2.
