Since the height is not given we can solve using another formula.
Area of Triangle = Base * Side * Sin Ф / 2
Here let us take the base to be 6 cm and the side measure to be 5 cm.
Substituting in the formula we get,
Area of triangle = 6 * 5 * Sin 30 / 2
=> Area = 30 * ( 1 / 2 ) / 2
=> Area = 30 * 1 / 4
=> Area = 30 * 0.25 = 7.5
Hence the area of the Triangle given is 7.5 cm²
Hope it helped !

Question :-
In the given figure, AC = 6cm, AB = 5 cm and BAC = 30°. Find the area of the triangle.
Answer :-
Area of the triangle = 7.5 cm²
Step-By-Step Explanation :-
Given :
- AB = 5 cm
- AC = 6 cm
- A = 30°
From the given figure
sin 30° = BC/AC = BC/6
➡ 1/2 = BC/6
➡ BC = 6/2
➡ BC = 3 cm
∆ABC = 1/2 × BC × AC
= 1/2 × 3 × 5
= 15/2
= 7.5 cm²
Hence, the area of the triangle = 7.5 cm².
