Sagot :

We have a right triangle. The sides with length 6 m and 5 m are perpendicular, so we can calculate the area of the triangle as:

[tex]A=\frac{b\cdot h}{2}=\frac{5\cdot6}{2}=\frac{30}{2}=15^{}[/tex]

NOTE: to use this formula, b and h have to be segments that are perpendicular to each other. In this case, there is a 90 degree angle between the segments, so they are perpendicular.

Answer: the area is 15 square meters.
