To find the area of triangle PQR, we can use the formula:
Area = (1/2) * p * q * sin(R)
Given:
Sin(R) = 5/8
p = 12 cm
q = 17 cm
Plugging in the values, we have:
Area = (1/2) * 12 cm * 17 cm * (5/8)
Area = (1/2) * (204 cm^2) * (5/8)
Area = (102 cm^2) * (5/8)
Area = 510 / 8
Area = 63.75 cm^2
Therefore, the area of triangle PQR is 63.75 square centimeters.
Find the area of a triangle PQR. If: SinR = 5/8, p = 12cm, q = 17cm.
