The area is multiplied by 4, not doubled.
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.
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
Area of a triangle = base * height / 2 Therefore the base = Area * 2 / height
Area of Triangle = 1/2 base x height 28 = 4 x height height = 7 cms
If the base stays the same, the area is also doubled.
The area is multiplied by 4, not doubled.
The area gets doubled.
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.
The exact same as the original triangle.
In the first case, the area will remain the same. In the second case, the area will doubled.
If the linear dimensions are doubled, the area is multiplied by (2)2 = 4 .
you can cut a triangle directly
The area doubles if the base stays the same.
nothing
There is no change in the area. Doubling the base and halving the height gives the same area. The formula for area of a triangle is A = bh/2 1/2 (base x height) Example: base 5, height 8 A = (5 * 8)/ 2 = 20 base 10, height 4 A = (10 * 4)/2 = 20
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
