L.I: To find the area of a triangle (continued)
Triangle questions and answers (continued)
EXTENSION ACTIVITY
N.B: Unlike the White Rose video and activity, some of the triangles in the extension will not be RIGHT ANGLE triangles. Don't worry! Remember that the perpendicular height is the height measured at a right angle from the base (which will be labelled). Have a look at the example below before starting the extension activity:
Area of a triangle extension if wanted (level 1)
Remember my tip above about the perpendicular height and take care with the long multiplication.. these numbers are big!
