Honey, measuring the width of a triangle is as easy as measuring the distance between two of its sides. Just whip out your ruler or measuring tape, line it up perpendicular to the base, and boom, you've got your width. No need for fancy math or geometry tricks here, just good old-fashioned measuring.
Measure it!
Yes, it exists. What about it?
It depends on what information you have.
For a rectangle, length X width = area. Measure the length in cm. Measure the width in cm. Multiply the length X the width to get the area in cm2.
To get the area of a triangle you multiply length by width and divide by two.
Measure it!
You use a ruler or tape measure.
You can measure a triangle's length and width, but there is no depth. So that means a triangle has two dimensions.
lenght x width, then divide by 2
AnswerThe formula is 1/2 H x W. In other words, multiply the Height of the triangle (in feet) by the Width of the triangle (in feet) and divide the result by 2.
No, not a triangle.
Yes, it exists. What about it?
-- Measure the height.-- Measure the width at the top.-- Measure the width at the bottom.Area = (1/2) x (height) x (width-at-the-top plus width-at-the-bottom)

We can't tell the difference between the "base" and the "width" of a triangle, so we're frankly stumped.
