Answer:

16.27 mm² (2 d.p.)

Explanation:

Area of a triangle


\boxed{ A=(1)/(2)ab \sin C}

where:

  • C is the angle.
  • a and b are the sides enclosing the angle.

Given:

  • a = 11 mm
  • b = 14 mm
  • C = θ = 12.2°

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for A:


\begin{aligned}A & = (1)/(2)ab \sin C\\\\\implies A & = (1)/(2)(11)(15) \sin (12.2^(\circ))\\& =82.5\sin (12.2^(\circ))\\& = 16.2720093...\\& = 16.27 \sf \;mm^2\; (2 \:d.p.)\end{aligned}

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 16.27 mm² (2 d.p.).
