2
6

A = 6 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (6)(2)

A = 6 units^2

6 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle can be found using the following formula.

a=(bh)/2

where b is the base and h is the height. In this triangle, we know that 6 units is the base. We also know that 2 units is the height, because the height should form a right angle(little square) with the base.

b=6

h=2

Substitute these values into the formula.

a=(6*2)/2

Multiply 6 and 2 first.

a=12/2

Divide 12 by 2

a=6

Add appropriate units. Area always has the unit squared.

a= 6 units^2

The area of the triangle is 6 square units.
