Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 18 \ inches^2}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is the amount of space inside the shape. The area of a triangle is half the product of the base and height.

[tex]a= \frac{1}{2} bh[/tex]

The base of the triangle is 18 inches and the height is 2 inches.

  • b= 18 in
  • h= 2 in

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]a= \frac{1}{2} (18 \ in)(2 \ in)[/tex]

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

[tex]a= \frac{1}{2}(36 \ in^2)[/tex]

Multiply by 1/2 or divide by 2.

[tex]a= 18 \ in^2[/tex]

The area of the triangle is 18 square inches.
