216 square centimeters.

Explanation:

Given:

Height = 16cm

The area of the triangle is calculated using the following formula:


\begin{gathered} A=(b\cdot h)/(2) \\ \text{ We replacing in this case:} \\ A=(27\cdot16)/(2) \\ A=216cm^2 \end{gathered}

The area of the triangle is 216 square centimeters.
