Question

find the area of the triangle using the formula $\mathcal{a}=\frac{1}{2}bh$, and verify that the formula $\mathcal{a}=\frac{1}{2}ab\sin c$ gives the same result.
the area, according to $\mathcal{a}=\frac{1}{2}bh$, is $\square$.
(simplify your answer, including any radicals. use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expression.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify base and height

Base \( b = 4 \), height \( h = 2 \)

Step2: Apply area formula \( A = \frac{1}{2}bh \)

\( A = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 2 \)

Step3: Calculate the result

\( A = 4 \)
