Q: Given the formula for the area of a triangle: $$A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$$, what is the area of a triangle with a base of 6 units and a height of 4 units?

$$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 4 = 12$$

Q: In the context of the graphs shown, if the red and blue lines intersect at (2, 4), what is the area of the triangle formed by the x-axis, the y-axis, and the line segment from (0,0) to (2,4)?

$$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times 4 = 4$$

Q: Suppose you have a triangle with vertices at (0,0), (4,0), and (4,3). What is the area of this triangle?

$$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 3 = 6$$

Q: If the area of a triangle is 10 square units and the base is 5 units, what is the height?

$$h = \frac{2A}{b} = \frac{2 \times 10}{5} = 4$$

Q: A triangle has an area of 8 square units and a height of 4 units. What is the length of the base?

$$b = \frac{2A}{h} = \frac{2 \times 8}{4} = 4$$
