To find the area of a triangle, we typically use the formula:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]
From your inputs, it seems you have the coordinates of a vertex at \(y = 10\) and \(x = 6\), but we'll need more information to calculate the area of the triangle accurately.
If we assume that the triangle is formed by the point (6, 10), and the x-axis, and another point on the x-axis such as (x1, 0) and (x2, 0), we can assume the base is between x1 and x2 along the x-axis and the height is 10 (the y-value of the triangle's vertex).
If we do not know the base, we cannot calculate the area without further details regarding the triangle's dimensions or the other vertices of the triangle. Could you provide more details or clarify the points that define the triangle?
