For triangles its base time height times one half or base times height divided by two. Personaly I would go with divided by two because you dont have to turn what you have into a fraction.

If you are only given the side lengths of a scalene triangle, it is impossible for you to find for the area, unless you are given more information... like the height of the triangle for example. If this is a right triangle you would like to find the area of, you can multiply the length of each leg with each other, and then divide that product by 2 to conclude the area of the triangle.

How do you find the perpendicular height of a triangle?

If it is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height since it will be on of the sides. If it is an equilateral triangle, you can break it up into two right triangles and use the part above. If it is an oblique triangle, you use the angles and some trigonometry to find it. Since the area is 1/2 b x h, if you are given the area, you can solve for the height.

What is the area of a right triangle that is 4cm by 8cm?

The area of a right-angle triangle is half of the area of a rectangle 8cm x 4cm. Find the rectangle area and divide by half to find the area of the right-angle triangle. Therefore: 8 x 4 / 2 = 16cm2 * * * * * The above answer assumes that the two given lengths are the shorter legs of the triangle. It is, however, possible that these are the hypotenuse and one leg. In that case, the second leg is 4*sqrt(2) cm and the area of the triangle is 4 * 4*sqrt(2) / 2 = 8*sqrt(2) = 11.31 cm2.
