Hi there!
There is a simple formula for finding the area of a Triangle:
A=BH(1/2)
A is the area, B is the Base, and H is the height.
Lets plug in the Base and Height
A=BH(1/2)
A=(5)(5)(1/2) Multiply 5 by 5
A=25(1/2) Multiply 25 by 1/2
A=12.5 The answer
Hope this helps! :D

A= 1/2 Base(height)
A= 1/2 (5)(5)
A= 25/2 ft^2.

Use the formula for the area of a triangle:
Area = (1/2)(base)(height)
So that means, Area = (1/2)(5)(5) = 25/2 square feet

The formulan for the area :
If :
Base = b
Height = h, then
Area = 1/2 * b*h
Substitute the needed variable,
Area = 1/2 * 5 ft * 5ft = 12.5 sq. ft.

area of a traingle with given base and height are 1/2*b*h where b=base and h=height.
therefore the area is
1/2*5*5=12.5sqft

area of a triangle= b *h /2
5ft x 5ft=25 sq ft/2=12.5 sq ft

Area = .5(base)(height)
A = .5 (5)(5)
A= 12.5
