In the figure one side of the triangle is 10 centimetres and angles on that side are 60° and 45°. Calculate the area of the triangle.
Show Hint
For an ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) triangle, a standard method to find the area is to drop a perpendicular to the known side. This divides the problem into two solvable right-angled triangles, allowing you to find the height and then the area.
