Correct Answer: 48 cm 2
Solution : The area of a triangle, $\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$ Given that the base of the triangle is 12 cm and the height (or the altitude) is 8 cm. $\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \, \text{cm} \times 8 \, \text{cm} = 48 \, \text{cm}^2$ Hence, the correct answer is 48 cm 2 .
