The area of a right angled triangle is given as;
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}\times b\times h \\ \text{Where } \\ b=\text{base (that is 6)} \\ h=\text{vertical height (that is 7)} \\ The\text{ area therefore is now;} \\ A=\frac{1}{2}\times6\times7 \\ A=\frac{1}{2}\times42 \\ A=21in^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The answer is 21 square inches
