To find the area of a right triangle, you can use the formula:
\[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} \]
Given that the base is 112 centimeters and the height is 212 centimeters, we can substitute these values into the formula:
\[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 112 \times 212 \]
Now, calculate the product:
\[ 112 \times 212 = 23744 \]
Now, divide by 2:
\[ \text{Area} = \frac{23744}{2} = 11872 , \text{square centimeters} \]
Therefore, the area of the triangle is 11872 square centimeters. However, this does not seem to match the options you provided. Could there be a misunderstanding in the values given? Please verify the base and height!
