For this case we want to find the area of a triangle whose base is 5.4cm and height 2cm.
By definition, the area of a triangle is given by:
[tex]A = \frac {b * h} {2}[/tex]
Where "b" represents the base and "h" represents the height of the triangle.
Then, replacing we have:
[tex]A = \frac {5.4 * 2} {2}\\A = \frac {10.8} {2}\\A = 5.4cm ^ 2[/tex]
Thus, the area of the triangle is [tex]A = 5.4cm ^ 2[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]A = 5.4cm ^ 2[/tex]
