Find the area of the triangle shown.

Drawing of a triangle. A dashed line runs from the top vertex to the side at the bottom and a small square at where the dashed line and the bottom side meet, indicates a right angle. The dashed line is labeled 6cm. The bottom side is labeled 7cm. Two arrows point away from the bottom label to each side indicating that the label is for the entire bottom side and not the section where the dashed line meets.
Area $=$= $\frac{1}{2}$12​ $\times$× base $\times$× height cm2 (Formula for area of triangle)
Area $=$= $\frac{1}{2}$12​ $\times$× $\editable{}\times\editable{}$× cm2 (Fill in the values for the base and height)
Area $=$= $\editable{}$ cm2 (Perform the multiplication to find the area)
