The base of the triangle is 8 units long, and the height is 6 units long.
The area of a triangle is given by the formula:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Substitute the values of base and height:
Area = 1/2 * 8 * 6
Area = 24 square units
Therefore, the area of the non-right triangle is 24 square units.
An illustration shows a 10 by 10 grid. A non-right triangle is enclosed within the grid. The first vertex at the top of row 2 and the right of column 8. The second vertex is at the top of row 4 and the right of column 1. The third vertex is at the bottom of row 10 and the right of column 8.
What is the area of the non-right triangle? The base and height are found by counting the squares.
