\begin{matrix} b = & 5.2 h = & 2.4 \end{matrix}

$\begin{array}{r} b = & 5.2 \\ h = & 2.4 \end{array}$

Step 1

The area of a triangle is equal to

\frac{1}{2}

$\frac{1}{2}$ the base times the height.

\frac{1}{2} \cdot (b a s e) \cdot (h e i g h t)

$\frac{1}{2} \cdot (b a s e) \cdot (h e i g h t)$

Step 2

Substitute the values of the base

b = 5.2

$b = 5.2$ and height

h = 2.4

$h = 2.4$ into the formula for the area of a triangle.

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 5.2 \cdot 2.4

$\frac{1}{2} \cdot 5.2 \cdot 2.4$

Step 3

Combine

\frac{1}{2}

$\frac{1}{2}$ and

5.2

$5.2$ .

\frac{5.2}{2} \cdot 2.4

$\frac{5.2}{2} \cdot 2.4$
