Answer:

180 inches² or 457.2cm²

Explanation:

Parameters - base is 2ft , convert to inches, that is multiplying your feet by 12, therefore base= 24 inches..... height is 15 inches .

Area of triangle= ½ × base × height

" " " " " = ½ × 24 × 15 = 180 inches

Convert inches to cm by multiplying by 2.54

Therefore 180 inches × 2.54 = 457.2cm².
