Answer:
I think they are asking the area of the triangle so we are going with that.
Explanation:
Easiest way to do this is find the area of the incomplete square, and then cut that in half for the triangle.
so it is 4 cm wide
and 8 cm tall
length x width = area
8 x 4 = 32
32/2 = 16
So your answer should be 16 cm
