Divers looking for a sunken ship have defined the search area as a triangle with adjacent sides of lengths 2.75 and 1.32 the angle between the sides is 35 degrees. find the search area.

Answer 1

For a triangle where you know two sides and the contained angle Ø
the area is (1/2)(side1)(side2)sinØ

You have those 3 numbers, let me know what you get

Answer 2

Given: a = 2.75, b = 1.32, A = 35o.
Area = 0.5*a*b*sinA. = 0.5*2.75*1.32*sin35 = ___ sq. miles.
