Question: 1 / 400

What is the area of a triangle with base length of 4 and height of 6?

8

10

12

The area of a triangle is calculated using the formula A=(1/2)bh, where 'b' is the base length and 'h' is the height. In this question, the base length is given as 4 and the height is given as 6. Plugging these values into the formula, we get A=(1/2)(4)(6)=12. Therefore, the area of the triangle is 12 square units.

Option A is incorrect because 8 is the result of multiplying the base and the height, not applying the formula for area. Similarly, option B is incorrect because 10 is not the result of the given formula. Option D is incorrect because it is twice the result of multiplying the base and the height. The correct answer is option C, 12, which is the result of using the given formula for area.
