Find the area of triangle ABC. Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place AC=7 Cb=12 a=72 degrees b=59 degrees

31.7 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of the triangle is calculated as

A = absinC

where a, b are the 2 sides given and C the angle between them

∠ C = 180° - (72 + 59)° = 180° - 131° = 49° , thus

A = 0.5 × 12 × 7 × sin49° ≈ 31.7 cm² ( to 1 dec. place )
