Step 1. Given information.

It is given that,

Base of the triangle $= b$

Height of the triangle $= h$

We need to find the area of the triangle.

Step 2. Determine the area of the triangle.

Area of a triangle is:

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height$

Substitute the given values in the above formula to find the area of the triangle.

$\begin{array}{rcl} A & = & \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h \\ A & = & \frac{1}{2} b h \end{array}$

Step 3. Conclusion.

The area of the triangle is $\begin{array}{rcl} A & = & \frac{1}{2} b h \end{array}$ .
