The angle is 100 degrees which is 10 degrees more than a
\n" ); document.write( "right angle. The formula for area is \"%281%2F2%29%2Ab%2Ah\",
\n" ); document.write( "where \"b\" is any of the sides, and once you've
\n" ); document.write( "chosen that side for a base, then you find the height, \"h\"
\n" ); document.write( "I'll choose the side = \"1\" for a base. The angle, \"C+=+100\"degrees
\n" ); document.write( "is between this base and the side that = \"2\"
\n" ); document.write( "I'll drop a vertical from the end of the side = \"2\", and that
\n" ); document.write( "will be my height
\n" ); document.write( "Have you had trig, or is this a trig question?
\n" ); document.write( "If so, \"sin+%2880%29+=+h%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\".9848+=+h%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h+=+1.9696\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29%2Ab%2Ah+=+%281%2F2%29%2A1%2A1.9696\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+.9848\" answer
\n" ); document.write( "It looks like the 1st answer is correct
\n" ); document.write( "
