Find the area of the triangle if its base and height are 6cm and 8cm.

Given:
triangle ABC,
АС – base,
VN – the height drawn to the base of the speaker,
AC = 6 centimeters,
BH = 8 centimeters.
Find the area of the triangle ABC, that is, S ABC -?
Decision:
1. The area of any triangle is equal to the product of an ordinary fraction by the height and by the base to which it is drawn.
2. Therefore, the formula for finding the area of the triangle ABC will be written as follows:
S ABC = 1/2 * VN * AC;
S ABC = 1/2 * 8 * 6;
S ABC = 4 * 6;
S ABC = 24 square centimeters.
Answer: 24 centimeters square.
