find the area of the following geometric figure. find the area of a triangle with base of 15 m and altitude of 12 m. area = m^2 options: 180 27 90

The equation for the equation of a triangle is , where A = area of triangle, b = base of triangle, h = height of the triangle.

The altitude is the same as the height of the triangle. That means h = 12. We are also told that the base, b = 15. Plug these numbers into the equation and find A, the area of the triangle:
