Area of a Right Triangle - Center of Rectangle (from Dimensions) (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on calculating the area of a right triangle situated at the center of a rectangle. It is designed to enhance problem-solving skills by requiring learners to apply formulas and dimensions to solve for the shaded triangle areas depicted in various images. Each question presents a different rectangle with a right triangle and requires students to determine the area of that shaded section, with multiple-choice answers provided for each problem. This practice is part of a broader unit dedicated to mastering triangle area calculations.
