(i need asap! ) find the area of wyz!

that triangle is half the rectangle, so area 8 × 4 / 2 = 16 sq cm.

answer: 16 sq cm

another way to see it is it's a right triangle, one leg 8, the other leg 4, so area (1/2)(8)(4) = 16.

answer:

area wyz = 16 square units

step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the rectangle is cut exactly in half as shown to create the two triangles, then the area of one triangle is half of the area of the whole rectangle.

rectangle area = (length) * (width)

= (8) * (4)

= 32

divide by 2

32/2 =16
