b=48h=x
The area of a triangle is equal to 12 the base times the height.
12⋅(base)⋅(height)
Substitute the values of the base b=48 and height h=x into the formula for the area of a triangle.
12⋅48⋅x
Factor 2 out of 48.
12⋅(2(24))⋅x
Cancel the common factor.
12⋅(2⋅24)⋅x
Rewrite the expression.
24⋅x
24x
Find the Area triangle (x)(48)
