A triangle is half of a rectangle or parallelogram with the same base and height, so we multiply by 1\/2. First write the triangle area formula, then undo the multiplication by 1\/2 by multiplying the area by 2. After that, divide by the known base or height. This keeps the calculation organized and gives the missing length unit.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"16 cm"},{"right":"yes","answer":"32 cm"},{"right":"no","answer":"47 cm"},{"right":"no","answer":"30 cm"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":2746,"title":"Mensuration","slug":"mensuration"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":2843,"title":"Area of Triangle","slug":"area-of-triangle"},{"id":2839,"title":"Missing Dimension","slug":"missing-dimension"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/20073","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/39"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20073"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20073"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=20073"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=20073"},{"taxonomy":"education_level","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/education_level?post=20073"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
