Finding the Area of a Triangle

To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula:

[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} ]

In this case, with a base of 4 and a height of 7, the area would be:

[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 7 = 14 ]

So, the area of the triangle is 14 square units. This formula is a fundamental concept in geometry and is often used in real-world applications.
