What is the area of an isosceles triangle?

41. What is the area of an isosceles triangle?

1. Area= Base* height²
2. Area= Base* √3*height
3. Area= (Base * height )/2
4. Area= √3/4 height

Answer

The correct answer is: C) Area= (Base * height )/2

Explanation

To compute the area of an isosceles triangle, use the formula: Area = (base * height) / 2

Where,

• The base is the length of the base of the isosceles triangle.
• The height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex.
