A triangle on a coordinate grid has corners at (0, 0), (6, 0) and (0, 4). Enter the number of square units in its area.
Correct answer
12 · Accepted units: units
Explanation
One side lies along the bottom axis with a length of 6, and another rises 4 straight up from the same corner, so those two act as base and height. Entering 24 leaves out the halving and reports the rectangle that the two sides frame, which the triangle fills exactly half of.
