Which equation can be used to calculate the area of the shaded triangle in the figure below?


A rectangle with length of 12 feet and width 4 feet. A diagonal cuts the rectangle into two halves. One of the triangular halves is shaded.


2(12 + 4) = 32

fraction 1 over 2(12 + 4) = 8

2(12 × 4) = 96

fraction 1 over 2(12 × 4) = 24

I'll mark as brainliest

Answer:

It is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (12 × 4) = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (base × height) = area of triangle

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (12 × 4) = area

area = 24
