Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the formula for the area of a triangle

The area \( A \) of a triangle is given by the formula: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \text{base} \cdot \text{height} \]

Step 2: Substitute the given values into the formula

In the given problem, the base is \( 8 \) and the height is \( 10 \). Substitute these values into the formula: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 8 \cdot 10 \]

Step 3: Perform the multiplication

Multiply the numbers to calculate the area: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 80 \] \[ A = 40 \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{A = 40}\)
