Answer:

It is one-half the area of a square of side length 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is a right triangle, its base and its height can be considered as the base and width of a rectangle. In the case that the base and height are exactly the same then that rectangle becomes a square. Now, the area of the triangle is always half the area of a parallelogram. Since the base and the height of the triangle are equal then the pralelogram is a square.

Conclusion: The area of the triangle is half the area of a square.
