Answer:

Area of the given right triangle = 24 square units.

Explanation:

Given triangle in the picture is a right triangle.

Area of a right triangle is given by,

Area =
$(1)/(2)(\text{Base})(\text{Height})$

Height of the given triangle = 8 unit

Base of the given triangle = 6 unit

Area of the triangle =
(1)/(2)(6)(8)

= 24 square units

Therefore, area of the given right triangle is 24 square units.
