We know, area of a triangle = 1/2 * b * h
Here, b = 14
h = 6

Substitute their values in expression,
Area = 1/2 * 14 * 6
Area = 1/2 * 84
Area = 42 m²

So, your final answer is 42 m²

Hope this helps!

Area of a triangle =
\frac{\text{Base} * \text{Height}}{2}

Base = 14m
Height = 6m

(14m x 6m)/2 = (84m^2) / 2 = 42m^2
