Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle when one angle a is given is given by:


A=(1)/(2)* sina* (Product\ of\ sides\ adjacent\ to\ angle\ a)

Here a=49 and sides adjacent to angle a are 7.2 and 6.4


A=(1)/(2)* sin49\° * 7.2* 6.4\\\\A=(1)/(2)* 0.75* 7.2* 6.4\\\\A=17.4\ cm^2

Hence, Area of given triangle is:

17.4 cm²
