| To solve the problem, you need to know the height.
1. From the top of the triangle, lower the height to the base.
2. Determine the value of its length.
√ (25² – (30/2) ²) = √ (625 – 225) = √400 = 20 centimeters.
3. Let’s calculate what is the area of the triangle.
30 * (20/2) = 300 cm².
Answer: 300 square centimeters.
