The formula for the area $A$ of a triangle is given by:

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h$

where $b$ is the base, and $h$ is the height.

In this problem:

• $b = 18$ meters
• $h = 30$ meters

Substituting these values into the formula:

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times 18 \times 30$

Let's calculate the area.The area of the triangle is $270$ square meters.
