Answer: The area of triangle is 25 sq. meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Area of a triangle = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}bh[/tex] m, where b= base of triangle
h= height of triangle.
If a triangle has 5 meters long base and a height twice the length of the base,
that means b = 5 meters and h= 2(5) = 19=0 meters
Then the area of triangle becomes [tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}(5)(10)=25 m^2[/tex] [Put alll values in the given formula]
Hence, the area of triangle is 25 sq. meters.
