Area of a triangle

How do I find the area of a non-right-angled triangle?

  • The area of any triangle can be found using the formula

Area space equals space 1 half a b space sin space C

  • C is the angle between sides a and b

Non Right-Angled Triangle labelled with angles A, B and C and opposite corresponding sides a, b and c.
  • Label your triangle correctly

    • Make sure that C is always the angle between the two sides

  • If angle C is 90°, you get a right-angled triangle

    • sin 90° = 1 so the formula becomes the familiar “Area = ½ × base × height”!

 

Examiner Tips and Tricks

  • You are given the triangle area rule on the formula sheet

Worked Example

The following diagram shows triangle ABC.
