If a triangle has a base of 36 and a height of 15, what would the area be.

270 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height

The base is 36 and the height is 15 so the answer would be equal to

1/2 (36 * 15)

36 * 15 = 540

1/2 (540) = 270

The answer simplifies to 270 units^2 because this is area and area is always squared
