Answer: A. 12 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is (1/2)bh because any triangle is half of a square (square formula = bh).

1/2bh --> 1/2 * 6 * 4 --> 12 square centimeters

Hope this helps! Good Luck :)

Answer:

A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 b x h

The base in this triangle is 6 and the height is 4 so 6 x 4 = 24.

Now we divide 24 by 2 which gives us 12 square centimeters.

Hope this helps
