Answer 1

Answer:

12 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a given figure is the measure of space occupied by the figure on a 2 dimensional plane.

Area of a triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ x base x height

From the given grid, the following can be observed for triangle STU.

base SU = 6 units

height = 4 units

Thus,

area of triangle STU =  $\frac{1}{2}$ x base x height

                                  =  $\frac{1}{2}$ x 6 x 4

                                  = 3 x 4

area of triangle STU = 12 square units

The required area of triangle STU is 12 square units.
