Answer:

The first image. 3mm, by 4mm

To find the area of a triangle, like you would with a rectangle you would multiply the base times the height:

6 * 4 = 24

Then you will mulyiply that by 1/2:

24 * 1/2 = 12

Now for the first image, you will multiply the base by the height, and see they are equal:

3 * 4 = 12

12 = 12

Hope it helps! =D
