1. Let's say right triangle ABC exists. 2 of it's sides are 3 in. long. We cut that into 2 triangles. Now, what is the area of one of those triangles? Rating EASY
2. x^x=y
x=z/6144
z=6*4^g
g=x or 6
5<g>7
None of the values are decimals. Find y.
y=?

@Yalturkmani For the first problem, are those two congruent triangles that you are cutting it into? If so, then I think the answer is 2.25 in^2.
1. That's an isosceles right-angled triangle.
1/2*B*H ; area of the entire triangle.
(1/2*B*H)/2 ; area of half of the triangle.
(1/2*3*3)/2 = 9/4 = 2.25 unit squared.

2. Didn't understand this question well. I'm getting 36. Is that correct?
#3 is correct for problem 1...
I figured that 2 was too hard so I changed it..
For problem 1 you didn't specify both triangles have same area, so any answer between 0 and the area of the whole triangle is possible.
