Answer:
Given
Base=6cm
Height=4cm
Therefore we know that
Area of triangle= 1/2×b×h
=1/2×6×4
=3×4
=12

The formula for finding the area of a triangle⇒
Base = 6cm
Height = 4cm
Area of Triangle =
∴ The area of the triangle whose base is 6 cm and the corresponding height is 4 cm would be 12cm.

- Obtuse Triangle - It has an angle which is more than 90°
Perimeter -
The formula to find the perimeter of a triangle is just to add all three sides.
Area -
The area is half into base into height ⇒
