The sides of the MK and KP of the MPK triangle are 12 cm and 18 cm, respectively.

The sides of the MK and KP of the MPK triangle are 12 cm and 18 cm, respectively. The angle of the triangle at the apex K is 30 degrees. Find the area of the triangle.

The sides of the triangle MK = 12 cm; КP = 18 cm; angle MКP = 30 °; MH is the height drawn to the side of the KP;

Triangle area MKP:

S = 1/2 * KP * MH;

In a triangle MKH, MH is a leg lying opposite an angle of 30 °, MK is a hypotenuse, which means MH = 1/2 MK;

MH = 1/2 * 12 = 6 (cm);

S = 1/2 * 18 * 6 = 54 (cm²).
