We are asked to find the area of the given triangle.
Recall that the area of a triangle is given by
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot b\cdot h[/tex]
Where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.
Let us find the base and height from the given figure.
As you can see,
base = 6
height = 4
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot b\cdot h \\ A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot6\cdot4 \\ A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot24 \\ A=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 12 square units.
