The area is doubled.
a,b - cathetus;
c - hypotenuse;
h - height;
S - area.
S = (a*b)/2 = (c*h)/2
obviously if k is the doubled height.
and A is the new area.
A = (c*k)/2 = (c*2h)/2 = c*h
and
A = S*2

If the base and height of a triangle are doubled how is its area changed?
The area is multiplied by 4, not doubled.
If the height of a triangle is doubled how does the area change?
The area of the triangle would double
If the base of a triangle is doubled but the height remains the same how does the area change?
Area = 1/2 x base x height The area of a triangle is directly proportional to its base (and also, actually, to it's height). Therefore, any change to the base (or it's height) is directly conferred onto that triangle's area. BY DOUBLING THE BASE OF A TRIANGLE, IT'S AREA TOO WILL DOUBLE.
How does the volume of a cylinder change if the height is doubled?
The volume will be doubled.

just did this on castle learning the answer is six times

The area should increase.
What is the effect on the area of a triangle if the base is doubled and the height is cut in half and What happens to the area if the base is doubled and the height remains the same?
In the first case, the area will remain the same. In the second case, the area will doubled.

the area remains constant justin biebeeZ a gay hot lord hahahah

How does the area of a triangle change when the height is doubled?
If the base stays the same, the area is also doubled.
If the base of a triangle is doubled and height is halved its area will be?
The exact same as the original triangle.

How does the area of a triangle change if the base is doubled and the height is halved?
you can easely calculate it: the original measurements: 6(bottom)*6(height)*½=18 double the base half the height: 12*3*½=18 so it remains the same
