Alright, so you know that the formula for the area of a triangle is a=bh/2
First start out by identifying your base and height.
Base is the side that the shape is "standing on", in this case, that would be 9cm.
Now, the height is the measurement that is perpendicular (90 degrees to the base), which in this case is 12 cm.
Now, plug these values into your formula
(12)(9) /2 = 54 cm squared! hope this helps :)
I'm not sure if that's the correct method of finding that (it could be, I was just never shown that kind of method). What I did was multiply everything out, that way you have two numbers vs two equations. Then add those two numbers and turn that into scientific notation.
Explain it more so I can comment it
