Option A: 6 square inches is the area of the triangle.
Explanation:
Given that the base of the triangle is 4 inches.
The height of the triangle is 3 inches.
We need to determine the area of the triangle.
Area of the triangle:
The area of the triangle can be determined using the formula,
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]
where b is the base and h is the height of the triangle.
Substituting [tex]b=4, h= 3[/tex] in the above formula, we get,
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3)[/tex]
[tex]A=\frac{12}{2}[/tex]
[tex]A=6 \ in^2[/tex]
Thus, the area of the triangle is 6 square inches.
Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
