Find the area of a triangle if its base is 10 cm and its height is 5 cm.

It should be remembered that the area of a triangle is half the product of its base and height. By the condition of the problem, the base of the triangle (10 cm) and its height (5 cm) are known.

Thus, we find the area of the triangle:

S = 1/2 (10 * 5) = 50/2 = 25 (cm ^ 2).

Answer: the area of the triangle is 25 cm ^ 2.
