The area of a triangular sail is given by the expression 12bh, where b is the length of the base and h is the height. What is the area of a triangular sail in a model sailboat when b = 12 inches and h = 7 inches?

42 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = (1/2)(base)(height)

A = 1/2(12)(7)

A = 1/2(84)

A = 42

sorry, i can't understand your question. will later if you describe more clearly!

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
