The length of one side of a triangle is ( 3 + 1 ) cm . The two interior angles on that side are 3 0 ∘ and 4 5 ∘ .
What is the area of the triangle?

Nice way Bhaiya but there may have been other possibilities like if the side 3 + 1 is opposite to 3 0 o , then the area may change?

But it is given that the included side is 3 +1 that means the side is between the two angles.. !

Um... it says that a side and two interior angles?

@Department 8 – The ques says...The two interior angles on that side ....

@Rishabh Jain – Oh never saw that!
@Rishabh Jain – Try this
T h e a n g l e o p p o s i t e o f s i d e 3 + 1 i s 1 8 0 − 3 0 − 4 5 = 1 0 5 . ∴ s i d e o p p o s i t e ∠ 3 0 , s a y x , = ( 3 + 1 ) ∗ S i n 1 0 5 S i n 3 0 . A r e a = 2 1 ∗ { 3 + 1 } ∗ x ∗ S i n 4 5 = 2 1 ∗ S i n 1 0 5 ( 3 + 1 ) 2 ∗ S i n 3 0 ∗ S i n 4 5 = 1 . 3 6 6
my solution is a bit longer, but it too yields the correct answer. What i did was that using the sine law (or whatever it is called) i marked all the angles. 30, 45, 105. sin of an angle /its opposite side =sin of the other angle/its respective opposite side. 3 + 1 sin 1 0 5 = x sin 3 0 so x = 2 side opposite to 30 degree angle is s q r t 2 similarly side opposite to 45 is 2. now i dropped an altitude to the 3 + 1 side. this becomes an isosceles triangle. so two arms containing the right angle become 1 because their hypotenuse is s q r t 2 so i calculated the areas of these two new triangles which turned out to be 0 . 8 6 6 0 2 5 4 3 7 8 4 4 3 8 6 5 6 7 6 3 6 + 0 . 5 = 1 . 3 6 6 0 2 5 4 3 7 8 4 4 3 8 6 5 6 7 6 3 6
In general, the area of a triangle given one side length and three angles is a^2sinBsinC/(2sinA). Plugging in the values, the area is a^2sin30sin45/(2sin105) = 1.36602
In∆ABC / B=45° and / C=30°. Also BC=√3+1. By sine rule, BC sinC=AB sinA. [/_A=105°] => AB=√2. Similarly we get,AC=2. [sin105°=(√3+1)/2√2] Now,area=1/2×(sinA×AB×AC) =(√3+1)/2 =1.366

Let the triangle be △ A B C where ∠ A B C = 3 0 ∘ and ∠ A C B = 4 5 ∘ .
Let A D be the altitude drawn to B C .
So,
tan 4 5 ∘ tan 3 0 ∘ 3 + 1 − A D A D = 1 area ( △ A B C ) = 1 ⇒ A D = D C = 3 1 ⇒ 3 + 1 − A D A D = 3 1 = 3 A D = 2 1 ⋅ 1 ⋅ ( 3 + 1 ) = 1 . 6 6 0 2
