Answer: 9 (in square units)


WORKINGS

Base of Triangle, b = 2√3

Height of Triangle, h = 3√3

Formula for Area of Triangle, A = (b * h)/2


Area of the Triangle = (2√3 * 3√3)/2

= (2 * √3 * 3 * √3)/2


Collect like terms in the bracket

= (2 * 3 * √3 * √3)/2

= [(2 * 3) * (√3 * √3)]/2

= (6 * 3)/2

= 18/2

= 9 (In square units)
