Straight Lines

Visual Analysis: The triangle has vertices at origin $(0, 0)$ , on the x-axis $(3, 0)$ , and on the y-axis $(0, 4)$ . It is a right-angled triangle.
Identify Base and Height: Base $b = 3$ (along x) and Height $h = 4$ (along y).
Calculation:
- $Area = \frac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height$
- $Area = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 4 = 6$ .
Result: 6 square units.
