Show Answer

Solution:

  1. In ABC, by sine rule, asinA=22sin30=4sinC

C=45,C=135

When, C=45A=180(45+30)=105

When, C=135A=180(135+30)=15

Area of ABC=12AB×ACsinA

=12×4×22sin(105)

=42×3+122

=2(3+1) sq. units

Area of ABC=12AB×ACsinA

=12×4×22sin(15)=2(31) sq. units 

Difference of areas of triangle

=|2(3+1)2(31)|=4 sq units 

Alternate Solution

Here, AD=2,DC=2

Difference of areas of ABC and ABC

= Area of ACC

=12AD×CC=12×2×4=4sq units
