Answer:

16ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the area, 128ft², and divide it by the base, 16ft².

Your answer is 16ft².

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To check your answer, use the formula for triangle, A=bh÷2.

16ft² * 16ft² = 256

256÷2=128ft²

A=128ft²
