Option A: 6 square inches is the area of the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the base of the triangle is 4 inches.

The height of the triangle is 3 inches.

We need to determine the area of the triangle.

Area of the triangle:

The area of the triangle can be determined using the formula,


A=(1)/(2)bh

where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.

Substituting
b=4, h= 3 in the above formula, we get,


A=(1)/(2)(4)(3)


A=(12)/(2)


A=6 \ in^2

Thus, the area of the triangle is 6 square inches.

Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
