To determine the area of a triangle, we use the formula:
Area = (base × height) / 2
In this case, we have a base of 8 meters and a height of 6 meters. Plugging in these values, we get:
Area = (8 m × 6 m) / 2
Calculating this gives:
Area = 48 m² / 2 = 24 m²
Thus, the area of the triangle is 24 square meters.
