A = bh/2
2A = bh
2(16) = bh
32 = bh
I would like to use integers, so the possibilities for the base and height are 1 and 32, 2 and 16, 4 and 8 units, or vice verse.
Always, it's your choice how to use them in order to draw different kind of triangles, such as right, scalene, or obtuse triangles.

Squares are rectangles. Draw a 2 unit square.
A right-angle triangle is half of a square or rectangle. Draw a square or rectangle and draw a line from one corner to the corner diagonally opposite. You now have two triangles of the same area.
== == 1) Draw a line segment AB of 5 units 2) Draw the perpendicular bisector CD of AB such that Cd meerts AB at C. 3) Mark off CE = 2 units on CD 4) Draw the straight line segments AE & BE. ABE is your triangle. Its base (AB) = 5 and height (CE) = 2, so its area = [base x ht] / 2 = 5 sq units
