A piece of a tile is in the shape of a right triangle. The base is 112 centimeters and the height is 212 centimeters. What is the area in square centimeters?(1 point)

The formula for finding the area of a right triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height.

Substitute in the given values:
A = 1/2 * 112 * 212

A = 1/2 * 23644

A = 11822

Therefore, the area of the right triangle is 11822 square centimeters.
