Jasmine bought a pennant (triangle) of the favorite baseball team. If the base is 16 inches and height is 24 inches, how much area will it cover on her wall? (HOW DID YOU GET YOUR ANSWER, PLEASE SHOW ME YOUR WORK!!) A. 600
B. 111
C. 598
D. 192
E. 9854.05
F. 9843.75
G. 55
H. 1

D. 192in^2

This would be a simple area problem with a triangle. REMEMBER THIS EQUATION: a=bh*1/2 (b for base and h for height, these are multiplied together then that answer is halved out.)

So we just need to plug in our values into the equation, so the equation would look like a= (16)*(24)*1/2. 16 times 24 would then give you 384, you could either divide by 2 or multiply by 0.5 to get the next answer, as long as your HALVING the answer.

So we have our bh value so now we can multiply by 1/2 which will give us 384*1/2 which leaves us with 192.

I have also attached a photo of doing a longer(ish) way than this, that also proves that this equation works. Either one will provide you an answer.
