Answer:

82 m²

Explanation:

You want the area of the triangle with sides b = 13 m, c = 17 m, and the angle between them, A = 48°.

Area

The relevant formula for the area is ...

Area = 1/2(bc)sin(A)

Area = 1/2(13 m)(17 m)sin(48°) ≈ 82.1175 m²

The area of the triangle is about 82 square meters.
