Question

Each side of a rhombus is 14 in. long. Two of the sides form a 60-degree angle. Find the area of the rhombus. Round your answer to the nearest square inch.

I know how to solve special right triangles. I just don't know where to start. If someone could point me in a general direction to begin that would be great, thanks!

since the area is base * height,
pick a side as a base: 14
the height is thus 14 sin 60°
and you're home free.
