Square inches

To find the area of a right triangle, you can use the formula:

Area = (base * height) / 2

In this case, the base of the triangle is 24 inches and the height is 6 inches.

Substituting these values into the formula:

Area = (24 * 6) / 2
= 144 / 2
= 72 square inches

Therefore, the area of the right triangle is 72 square inches.
