Answer: The area of the triangle is: " 2v⁴u² square units" ;
or, write as: " 2v⁴u² units² " .
______________________________________________________
Note: The formula/equation for the area, "A", of a triangle is:

A = (1/2) * b * h ; or: A = (b * h) / 2 ;
______________________________________________________
in which: "A" = "area" ;
"b" = "base length" ;
"h" = "[perpendicular] height" ;
______________________________________________________
We are asked to solve for the area, "A" .

We are given: "b = 4v³ " ; "h = vu² " ;

So; to find the area, "A", of the triangle, we plug these given values into the formula; and solve/ simplify:
____________________________________________________
A = (1/2) * b * h ;

A = (1/2) * (4v³) * (vu²) ;

A = 2v³ * vu² ;

A = 2v⁴u² square units.

Answer: The area of the triangle is: " 2v⁴u² square units" ;
or, write as: " 2v⁴u² units² " .
