Question

Q. Whatis the area of the triangle. A) 6 sq. cm B) 6 cm C) 12 cm D) sq. cm

Answer 1

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)
