Answer 2

Answer:

The area of the given triangle is 4 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertices of a triangle (0,4), (0,0) and (2,0).

The vertices are the x- and y-coordinates. The vertices are marked in red in the graph shown.

The first one (0, 4) has 0 on x-axis and 4 units on y-axis.

Second one is the origin (0,0), x- and y-coordinates both are at zero.

Third one (2,0) has 2 units on x-axis and 0 on y-axis.

Joining all the points gives a triangle, shown with yellow colored line in the graph.

The area of the triangle is given by $A=\dfrac{1}{2} \times\mbox{base} \times \mbox{height~}$

From the graph, the base is 2 units and height is 4 units.

Thus, the area of the given triangle is

$A=\dfrac{1}{2} \times2 \times 4=4\mbox{~square units}$

Therefore, the area of the given triangle is 4 square units.
