Answer:
[tex] \textsf{Area} = 30 \, \textsf{in}^2 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a triangle, we can use the formula:
[tex] \Large \boxed{\boxed{\textsf{Area} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times \textsf{Base} \times \textsf{Height} }}[/tex]
Given the values:
- Base = 10 in.
- Height = 9 in.
Substitute these values into the formula:
[tex] \textsf{Area} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 10 \, \textsf{in} \times 6 \, \textsf{in} [/tex]
[tex] \textsf{Area} = 5 \, \textsf{in} \times 6 \, \textsf{in} [/tex]
[tex] \textsf{Area} = 30 \, \textsf{in}^2 [/tex]
So, the area of the triangle is [tex]30 \, \textsf{in}^2[/tex].
