Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a triangle, we need to know the base and perpendicular to the base (height) of the triangle.
For a right triangle,
(Hypotenuse)² = (Base)² + (Perpendicular)²
We can find the perpendicular first from the above relation.
Given, Hypotenuse, c = 6 in
Base, b = 2 in
Perpendicular,
The area of triangle:
