The area of a triangle with base 4 cm and height 6 cm is 24 cm². Is the given statement true or false and justify your answer.

Solution:

Given, base of triangle = 4 cm

Height of triangle = 6 cm

We have to determine if the area of triangle is 24 cm²

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 4 × 6

= 2 × 6

Area = 12 cm²

Therefore, the given statement is false.

✦ Try This: Write True or False and justify your answer: The area of a triangle with base 8 cm and height 4 cm is 16 cm².

Given, base of triangle = 8 cm

Height of triangle = 4 cm

We have to determine if the area of triangle is 16 cm²

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 8 × 4

= 4 × 4

Area = 16 cm²

Therefore, the given statement is true.
