Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Area of Triangles Worksheets | PYP IB Grade 5
To solve the problem of finding the area of the given triangles, we will use the formula for the area of a triangle:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

Let's calculate the area for each triangle step by step.

---

Triangle a


- Base (\(b\)) = 4 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 6 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 6 = \frac{1}{2} \times 24 = 12 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle a: \(\boxed{12}\)

---

Triangle b


- Base (\(b\)) = 6 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 8 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = \frac{1}{2} \times 48 = 24 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle b: \(\boxed{24}\)

---

Triangle c


- Base (\(b\)) = 8 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 9 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 9 = \frac{1}{2} \times 72 = 36 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle c: \(\boxed{36}\)

---

Triangle d


- Base (\(b\)) = 10 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 6 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 6 = \frac{1}{2} \times 60 = 30 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle d: \(\boxed{30}\)

---

Triangle e


- Base (\(b\)) = 6 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 7 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 7 = \frac{1}{2} \times 42 = 21 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle e: \(\boxed{21}\)

---

Triangle f


- Base (\(b\)) = 6 cm
- Height (\(h\)) = 6 cm

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 6 = \frac{1}{2} \times 36 = 18 \, \text{cm}^2
\]

Answer for Triangle f: \(\boxed{18}\)

---

Final Answers


\[
\boxed{12, 24, 36, 30, 21, 18}
\]
