Solution

The correct option is A 8
Side length of the square = 4 cm

Area of the square = side $\times$ side

= $4 \times 4$ = $16 c m^{2}$

Now, area of each triangle

= $\frac{1}{2} \times$ Area of square

= $\frac{1}{2} \times 16 = 8 c m^{2}$

Therefore, area of the yellow triangle is $8 c m^{2}$ .
