Answer» CONSIDER any TRIANGLE ΔABC.ΔABC. In right triangle ΔABD,ΔABD, sinθ=BDABsinθ=BDAB BD=ABsinθBD=ABsinθ The area of this triangle is EASY right? ar(ΔABC)=12BD⋅ACar(ΔABC)=12BD⋅AC ar(ΔABC)=12AB⋅ACsinθar(ΔABC)=12AB⋅ACsinθ We can generalise this as follows, the area of a triangle with consecutive sides a,BA,b and included angle θθ is 12absinθ.12absinθ. Apllying this to your question, A=1220×20×12–√A=1220×20×12 A=1002–√ cm2 |
