Answer:
the question is mistyped.. they are trying to ask for the area.. not are.. :P soooo ... to answer the question that is trying to be asked.. and not the one that is being asked.. b/c there isn't really an answer to what is the are.... :/
Explanation:
area of a triangle is 1/2 area of the box that the triangle makes 1/2 hmm , hence the fomula.. 1/2*base*height.... b/c base*height is the area for a box... soooo ...
for this triangle it's 1/2* 3 * 4= 6 :)
note: even thou this is not a right triangle.. we still know the height of it.. the graph is showing us that. so our formula still works... for this one if we didn't know height.. we might have to use sin() or cos() to figure out height.. but here it's given. luckily :)
