please help i dont know what it wants me to do it would be nice if you would explain it but you dont have to.​

Answer 1

Answer: 54 cm^2

Explanation:

The area of a triangle is base*height/2.

To find the missing side of this triangle we can use pythagorean theroem. Let the unknown side = x

15^2 = 12^2+x^2

225 = 144+x^2

x^2 = 81

x = 9

Area = BH/2

Area = 9*12/2

Area = 54 cm^2
