In the image, you are asked to find the area of a right triangle. The sides of the triangle are given as:

- One leg = 7.5 units
- Another leg = 12 units

The formula for the area of a triangle is:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

Here, the base and the height are the legs of the right triangle.

Let's calculate the area.

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 7.5 \times 12
\]

Now, I'll compute the result.The area of the given right triangle is \( 45.0 \) square units.
