The base of a triangle is represented by (2x − 6) and the height by (x − 2). Which polynomial expression BEST represents the area of the triangle?

Respuesta :

Ckaranja
Area of a triangle= [tex] \frac{1}{2} *base*height[/tex]
A=[tex] \frac{1}{2} *(2x-6)*(x-2)[/tex]
A=[tex] \frac{1}{2} ( 2x^{2} -4x-6x+12)[/tex]
A=[tex] x^{2} -2x-3x+6[/tex]
A=[tex] x^{2} -5x+6[/tex]

x2 - 5x + 6 is the answer. Hope this helps.
