what is the area in square centimeters of the triangle pictured here

the triangle is 7cm and 9cm

To calculate the area of a triangle, you can use the formula A = 1/2 * base * height. In this case, the base of the triangle is 9cm and the height is 7cm.

A = 1/2 * 9 * 7
A = 63 / 2
A = 31.5 square centimeters

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 31.5 square centimeters.
