There are different formulae, depending on what information you have:
If base, b, and vertical height, h, then 0.5*b*h
If two sides: a and b and included angle C, then 0.5*a*b*sin(C)
If three sides: a, b and c then sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)] where s = 0.5*(a+b+c)
there are many other formulae.

What is the formula to determine the area of a right triangle?
to find the area of any triangle follow the formula: 1/2(b*h) "B" - stands for the base of the triangle "H" - stands for the height of the triangle
How does one calculate the area of a triangle?
The area of a triangle can be calculated with one main formula. That is, A=(b*h)/2, where A is the area of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle, and h is the height of the triangle.
Calculate area of triangle?
half base multiply height. 1/2BasexHeight
What is the area of a triangle that has 11 cm base and 6 cm height?
The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 times the product of the triangle's base and height. Applying this formula yields and area of (6)(11)/2 = 33 square centimeters.
How do you find the area of a scalene triangle?
Use Heron's Formula
FORMULA- area of equilateral triangle?
Area of Equilateral Triangle A= S2 * (Root 3)/4, where A= Area of the triangle S= Side of the triangle.
Does the formula for the area of a triangle pertain to all triangles including scalene triangles?
The title of the formula is "Formula for the Area of a Triangle". No discrimination is expressed or implied.
How is the formula for the area of a triangle related to the formula for an area of a parallelogram?
Area of a triangle = 0.5*base*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height
What is the formula for the area of an isosceles triangle?
The are of any triangle is calculated by the formula: Area = 1/2 x Base x Height
Formua for area of a triangle?
The formula for finding the area of a triangle is: Area = (base * height) / 2.
What is the surface area of a triangle?
the formula for the area of a triangle is: base times height divided by two.
What is the formula surface area to a triangular prism?
Area of triangle * 2 + perimeter of triangle * length.
What is a formula for surface area of triangle?
K, well there is no surface area of a triangle, because a triangle is a 2s figure. Surface area is for a 3d figure. To find the regular area of a triangle the formula is 1/2 of the base X the height :) gl :P
