If the area of parallelogram ABCD is 27 square feet, what is the area of triangle ABC?
a. 27 ft2
b. 54 ft2
c. 13.5 ft2
d. 13 ft

Respuesta :

Answer:
13.5 ft².

Explanation:
A parallelogram is bisected by its diagonal so the area is also bisected.
A bisected figure is exactly half of the measurement of the original figure.

Half of 27 square feet is 13.5 square feet.The formula for finding area of a triangle is:
A = 
[tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex]bh (formula for area of a parallelogram. A=bh).
