Use the formula for area of a triangle.
68cm^2
Here we will use the formula for calculating the area of a triangle.
A=1/2bh
Now we substitute the value of the base, b= 17, and the value of the height, h= 8, into the formula to calculate A.
b= 17, h= 8
Commutative Property of Multiplication
a/c* b = a* b/c
