The height of the red triangle is 1/2 the top or bottom white triangle. That's because the diagonals and the horizontal line all meet in the middle.
The base of the red triangle is equal to 1/2 the length of the base.
Formula
Area red = 1/2 b * h
Solution
b = 1/2
h = 1/2
Area = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2
Area = 1/8
