ACTIVITY 2

The following problem has been solved for you. Follow it through and master the steps.

Find the area of triangle FGH  below:

 Step 1

Which formula do we use?

A=1/2absinC

Step 2

Of the three angles, which one will we use?

We will use 500 because it is the angle situated between the two given sides (included angle).

Therefore,

Area= 1/2×6×7sin 500

=16.09cm2
