    C:120

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The area of each triangle is A = 1/2 bh

    A = 1/2 (4) * 5

    A = 10 cm^2

    We have 12 triangles

    The total area is 12 times the area of 1 triangle

    total area = 12 * A triangle

    = 12 * 10

    =120 cm^2

    120 square centimeter. (c)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total Area = 12 * area of one triangle [area of right triangle = 1/2 * b * h]

    = 12 * 1/2 * b * h

    = 12 * 1/2 * 4 * 5

    = 120 square centimeter.
