Answer:

8934 square units

Explanation:

You want the area of a right triangle with leg 98 and hypotenuse 207.

Pythagorean theorem

The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relation between the sides of a right triangle is ...

a² +b² = c²

98² +b² = 207²

b = √(207² -98²) = √(42849 -9604) = √33245

b ≈ 182.332

Area

The area of a right triangle is half the product of the leg lengths:

A = 1/2ab = 1/2(98)(182.332) ≈ 8934.27

The area of the triangle is about 8934 square units.
