Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Area of a triangle:

`A=(b*h)/(2)`

In our case:

b=4

h=2

Plug in what we know:

`A=((4)(2))/(2) \\A=4units`

Find the matching solution:

A.) it is 1/2 the area of a rectangle of length 4 units and width 2 units

X B.) it is twice the area of a rectangle of length 4 units and width two units

X C.) it is 1/2 the area of a square of side length 4 units
