The area of a right triangle is given by the formula:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Therefore, the area of the right triangle with a base of 2 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters would be:
Area = 1/2 * 2 cm * 6 cm
Area = 1/2 * 12 cm^2
Area = 6 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the right triangle is 6 square centimeters.
