area of a triangle = (b x h) /2
(2√3 × 3√3 )/2=
(2×3√3×3)/2 =
(6√9)/2 =
(6×3)/2 =
18/2 =
9 in²
Hope this helps

Answer:

B. 9 inch²

Explanation:

We are given that,

Base of the triangle =
2√(3) inches

Height of the triangle =
3√(3) inches

Now, Area of the triangle =
(1)/(2)(Base* Height)

i.e. Area of the triangle =
(1)/(2)(2√(3)* 3√(3))

i.e. Area of the triangle =
(1)/(2)(6* 3)

i.e. Area of the triangle =
(18)/(2)

i.e. Area of the triangle = 9 inch²

Thus, the area of the triangle is 9 inch².

So, option B is correct.
