Answer:
The upper bound of the area is 6.69375 cm²
The lower bound of the area is 6.32875 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The question relates to measurements and accuracy
The given information are;
The base length of the triangle = 3.1 cm
The height of the triangle = 4.2 cm correct to one decimal place
The lower bound for the base length of the triangle = 3.05 cm
The upper bound for the base length of the triangle = 3.15 cm
Similarly, the lower bound for the height of the triangle = 4.15 cm
The upper bound for the height of the triangle = 4.25 cm
The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is given by the following formula;
Area of a triangle = 1/2 × Base × Height
The upper bound of the area = 1/2 × The upper bound of the base × The upper bound of the height
The upper bound of the area = 1/2 × 3.15 × 4.25 = 6.69375 cm²
The upper bound of the area = 6.69375 cm²
The lower bound of the area = 1/2 × The lower bound of the base × The lower bound of the height
∴ The lower bound of the area = 1/2 × 3.05 × 4.15 = 6.32875 cm²
The lower bound of the area = 6.32875 cm²
