to find the area of any triangle follow the formula: 1/2(b*h)
"B" - stands for the base of the triangle
"H" - stands for the height of the triangle

Area=1/2(base*height) where either side can be the base or the height in a right triangle.
The area of a right triangle is dependent on the length of leg A and leg B. The formula for this is A= leg a multiplied by leg b then divided by 2.
The Formula for area of any triangle (including right) is: Base x height divided by 2 for example: the base of my triangle is 10 cm and the height of my triangle is 5 cm 10 x 5 divided by 2 = 25 cm squared
I do believe you mean RIGHT triangle when you said perpendicular triangle. A right triangle has two legs and a hypotenuse. The area of a right triangle is 1/2 * (first leg) * (second leg) How do you determine which ones are the legs and which one is the hypotenuse? The hypotenuse is ALWAYS the largest number. So, choose the 2 smallest numbers.
The area of a triangle can be calculated with one main formula. That is, A=(b*h)/2, where A is the area of the triangle, b is the base of the triangle, and h is the height of the triangle.
