  1. Answer: 12ft²

Step-by-step explanation: Hello There!

When we are given two side lengths and the included angle we use this formula to solve for the area

A = 1/2absin(C)

where a and b = the side lengths and c = the included angle

The triangle gives us the following information

side length - 10 ft

side length - 4 ft

included angle - 37

Given this information we plug it into the formula

A = 1/2 4 * 10sin(37)

10 * 4 = 40

40sin(37) = 24.07260093

24.07260093 = 12.03630046

Finally we round to the nearest tenth and get that the area of the triangle is 12ft²
