Question 936239: A triangle has an area of 24 square inches. Two sides of the triangle are 4 inches and 8 inches. Find the angle included by these two sides. Hi I'm Henry and I'm having a lot of trouble. I need someone to lead me in the right direction
Answer by srinivas.g(540) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
formula : area =
where a, b are length of sides
x is the angle induced b/w those sides
hence

sin(x)= 24/16
sin(x)=1.5
sin (x) cannot be more than 1 for any value of x
There might be error in the problem
