Answer:

6.0 cm²

Explanation:

You want the area of ∆DEF with sides e=1.4 cm, f=9.1 cm, and angle D=109°.

Area

The area of the triangle is given by the formula ...

A = 1/2ef·sin(D)

A = 1/2(1.4 cm)(9.1 cm)sin(109°) ≈ 6.37·0.94552 cm² ≈ 6.023 cm²

The area of triangle DEF is about 6.0 square centimeters.

In ΔDEF, e = 1.4 cm, f = 9.1 cm and ∠D=109°. Find the area of ΔDEF, to the nearest-example-1
