Given two sides of a triangle, the smallest area is almost zero when the two sides are almost coincident, while the largest area is the one when the two sides are perpendicular, thus the one of the right triangle of legs 6 and 8.
Thus, the range of possible areas goes from \(0^+\leq Area\leq \frac{6*8}{2}=24\). Thus, all the three areas are possible and answer is E
