Kallie · Answer 1

Area of a triangle = (base x height) / 2

dа ta:

Base=6 cm

height=9 cm

Area of this triangle = (6 cm) (9 cm) / 2=27 cm².

Answer: the area of this triangle is 27 cm²

Nugget · Answer 2

Since 6 and 9 are the two sides of the right triangle, if this were a rectangle, the area would be 6*9=54 sq centimeters. the triangle will occupy half this space, thus 6*9/2 = 27 sq cm.
