The correct Answer is:
To find the area of triangle ABC where the angles are \(30^\circ\) and \(45^\circ\) and the included side \(C\) is \((\sqrt{3} + 1)\) cm, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Third Angle Since the sum of angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\), we can find angle \(C\): \[ C = 180^\circ - A - B = 180^\circ - 30^\circ - 45^\circ = 105^\circ \] ### Step 2: Use the Sine Rule to Find Side \(B\) We can use the sine rule, which states: \[ \frac{A}{\sin A} = \frac{B}{\sin B} = \frac{C}{\sin C} \] We want to find side \(B\), so we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{B}{\sin B} = \frac{C}{\sin C} \] Substituting the known values: \[ B = \frac{\sin B}{\sin C} \cdot C \] Where \(B = 45^\circ\) and \(C = \sqrt{3} + 1\). ### Step 3: Calculate \(\sin 45^\circ\) and \(\sin 105^\circ\) Using known values: \[ \sin 45^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \quad \sin 105^\circ = \sin(60^\circ + 45^\circ) = \sin 60^\circ \cos 45^\circ + \cos 60^\circ \sin 45^\circ \] Calculating \(\sin 105^\circ\): \[ \sin 105^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{2\sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 4: Substitute to Find \(B\) Now substituting back into the sine rule: \[ B = \frac{\sin 45^\circ}{\sin 105^\circ} \cdot C = \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{2\sqrt{2}}} \cdot (\sqrt{3} + 1) \] This simplifies to: \[ B = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3} + 1} \cdot (\sqrt{3} + 1) = 2 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Area of Triangle ABC The area \(A\) of triangle ABC can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot B \cdot C \cdot \sin A \] Substituting the known values: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot (\sqrt{3} + 1) \cdot \sin 30^\circ \] Since \(\sin 30^\circ = \frac{1}{2}\): \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot (\sqrt{3} + 1) \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{2} \text{ cm}^2 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the area of triangle ABC is: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + 1}{2} \text{ cm}^2 \] ---
