In this resource scalene triangles are drawn on a square grid. The challenge is to find the area of the triangle.

On each student worksheet there is a different triangle, but the solutions all have something in common.

One way to find the area is to enclose the triangle in a right-angled triangle, and...

This is one of a series of resources to support the use of the BBC micro:bit.
