Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: A rectangle can be divided evenly into two right triangles. If the area of the rectangle is .

TO FIND: area of the blue right triangle.

SOLUTION:

As the rectangle is divided between two even right triangle area of both right triangle is equal.

let the area of one right triangle

As the sum of area of triangles s equal to area of rectangle

Hence the area of one of the right triangle is

answer: the first graph
