Area Formulas for Oblique Triangles

This document provides instructions for calculating the area of oblique triangles. It begins by reminding the reader that the area of a right triangle can be found using 1/2 * base * height. It then presents an example triangle and asks the reader to find its area. Finally, it notes that the height can be drawn to either side of the triangle, providing two possible area formulas that are shown as fill-in-the-blank equations.

PRECALC NAME_______________________

Day #4- Area of Oblique Triangles Unit 8:Oblique Triangles


Learning Target: Understand and apply the Area Formulas to find the area of Oblique triangles.

1. How do we find the area of a right triangle?

2. Given the following picture, find the area of the triangle.

3. Since the height (altitude) of the triangle can be drawn to either side of the triangle, we
could similarly find additional equations.

Area = ____________________ OR Area = ____________________

4. Examples
