Answer:

The answer is false.

Explanation:

We have to tell the statement true or false

The statement is

'To find the area of a right triangle, multiply its base by its altitude'

As we know the area of right angled triangle can be calculated as


\text{Area of triangle}=(1)/(2)* base * altitude

Hence, in the above statement divide by 2 is not included.

Hence, the given statement is not correct i.e false
