The area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height. This means that you take half of the side on the bottom of the triangle and multiply it by the height from the base to the tip of the triangle.
For example, if the base of the triangle is 4 cm and the height is 2 cm, then the area is:
A = 1/2 x b x h
A = 1/2 x 4 cm x 2 cm
A = 2 cm x 2 cm
A = 4 cm2
