Given base and height of triangle: 16 in and 8 in respectively.
Formula to determine the area of a triangle ====> ½ × Base × Height
Substitute the base and the height in the formula;
⇒ ½ × Base × Height
⇒ ½ × 16 × 8
Simplify the expression as needed;
⇒ 8 × 8
⇒ 64 in²
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 64 in².
