Notice that the figure is a right triangle; therefore, its area is given by the formula


A=(1)/(2)b\cdot h_{}

In our case, b=4cm and h=3cm; thus,


\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow A=(1)/(2)\cdot4\cdot3=(1)/(2)\cdot12=6 \\ \Rightarrow A=6 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is 6 cm^2, the first option (top to bottom)
