"cm" ["centimeters"].}
____
b = " base length " = 12 cm {as shown in the image};
____
h = " perpendicular height " = 7 cm {as shown in the image} .
____
To find the area; A :
We plug our given values into the equation/formula:
A = b * h ;
= (12 cm) * (7 cm) ;
= 12 * 7 * cm * cm ;
A = 84 cm² .
_____________
