Final answer:

To calculate the area of the region bounded by curves that form a right triangle, use the formula Area = (1/2) × base × height. The question lacks specific functions or details to determine the base and height directly.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the region bounded by curves, one common approach is to calculate the area under the curve if the relationship between the quantities on the X and Y axes represents a geometric shape, such as a triangle or a rectangle. When the problem states 'Finding the area under the curve' and refers to 'the area of the right triangle,' it suggests that the curves form a right triangle within a coordinate system.

To calculate the area of a right triangle, we use the formula Area = (1/2) × base × height. In this case, however, the question does not provide specific functions or sufficient information to determine the base and height of the triangle directly. Therefore, we need more details about the curves to proceed with the calculation. In general, if we had the base and height, we could plug those values into the formula to find the area.

If this relates to a certain figure or equations mentioned in a textbook or assignment sheet, please provide those details for an accurate calculation.
