Answer:

Given that:

x = 5 cm

Height = 6x = 6 * 5 cm = 30 cm

Base = 3x + 4 = 3 * 5 cm + 4 cm = 19 cm

The area of a triangle is calculated by half the product of the base and the height.

Area = (1/2) * base * height

Plugging in the values, we get:

Area = (1/2) * 19 cm * 30 cm

Area = 285 cm^2

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 285 cm^2.

I hope this helps!
