Mr. Brooks is buying felt to cover a triangular putting green of his miniature golf course. The base of the green is 4 ft wide, and the height is 12 ft. The felt costs $1.99 per square foot.What is the cost of the felt to cover the green?
First, you'd find the area of the triangle by doing base times height divided by two (so 4 times 12 divided by 2, which is 24) and then multiply that number by the cost of one foot to get your price. So 24 times $1.99 which is $47.76
