Question

In ΔOPQ, q = 110 inches, o = 970 inches and ∠P=167°. Find the area of ΔOPQ, to the nearest square inch.

Answer 1

12001

Explanation:

Answer 2

`Area = 12004` square inches

Explanation:

Given

`q = 110`

`o = 970`

`\angle P =167`

Required

The area of the triangle

To do this, we use:

`Area = (1)/(2) * o * q * sin(P)`

So, we have:

`Area = (1)/(2) * 970 * 110 * sin(167^\circ)`

`Area = (1)/(2) * 970 * 110 * 0.2250`

`Area = 12003.75`

Approximate

`Area = 12004`
