Answer:

14 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Obtuse angle: more than 90° and less than 180°

The formula for the area of an obtuse triangle is the same as that for any triangle:  

  • area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Therefore, given:

  • base = 4 cm
  • height = 7 cm

⇒ area = 1/2 x 4 x 7 = 14 cm²
