The correct Answer is:
To find the area of triangle ABC where \( a = 12 \, \text{m} \), \( \angle B = 30^\circ \), and \( \angle C = 90^\circ \), we can use the formula for the area of a triangle based on its sides and angles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the angles**: - Given \( \angle C = 90^\circ \), this is a right triangle. - The remaining angle \( \angle A \) can be calculated as follows: \[ \angle A = 180^\circ - \angle B - \angle C = 180^\circ - 30^\circ - 90^\circ = 60^\circ \] 2. **Use the area formula for a triangle**: The area \( A \) of triangle ABC can be calculated using the formula: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times a \times b \times \sin(C) \] where \( a \) is the side opposite angle A, \( b \) is the side opposite angle B, and \( C \) is the angle between sides \( a \) and \( b \). 3. **Determine the sides**: Since \( a = 12 \, \text{m} \) is opposite angle A, we need to find side \( b \) (which is opposite angle B). We can use the sine rule: \[ \frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} \] Plugging in the known values: \[ \frac{12}{\sin(60^\circ)} = \frac{b}{\sin(30^\circ)} \] Knowing that \( \sin(60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \) and \( \sin(30^\circ) = \frac{1}{2} \): \[ \frac{12}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{b}{\frac{1}{2}} \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 12 \cdot \frac{1}{2} = b \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \implies 6 = \frac{b \sqrt{3}}{2} \implies b = \frac{12}{\sqrt{3}} = 4\sqrt{3} \] 4. **Calculate the area**: Now we can substitute \( a \), \( b \), and \( C \) into the area formula: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 4\sqrt{3} \times \sin(90^\circ) \] Since \( \sin(90^\circ) = 1 \): \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 4\sqrt{3} \times 1 = 24\sqrt{3} \, \text{m}^2 \] ### Final Answer: The area of triangle ABC is \( 24\sqrt{3} \, \text{m}^2 \).
