Answer:

[tex]30\ cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is the following,

[tex]A=\frac{(b)(h)}{2}[/tex]

Where (A) represents the area, (b) represents the base, and (h) represents the height. Substitute in the given values and solve for the area.

[tex]A=\frac{(b)(h)}{2}\\\\A=\frac{(5)(12)}{2}\\\\A=\frac{60}{2}\\\\A=30[/tex]

We know that, Area of a Triangle is given by :

[tex]\bigstar \ \ \boxed{\sf{A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height}}[/tex]

Given:

- Height = 5 cm

- Base = 12 cm

[tex]\implies \sf{Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 5}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf{Area = 6 \times 5}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf{Area \ of \ the \ Triangle = 30 \ cm^2}[/tex]
