Answer

$$290{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^2}$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & A = {\text{34}}.{\text{97}}^\circ ,b = {\text{35}}.{\text{29 m}},c = {\text{28}}.{\text{67 m}} \cr & {\text{Find the area of the triangle using the formula }}Area = \frac{1}{2}bc\sin A \cr & Area = \frac{1}{2}\left( {{\text{35}}.{\text{29 m}}} \right)\left( {{\text{28}}.{\text{67 m}}} \right)\sin \left( {{\text{34}}.{\text{97}}^\circ } \right) \cr & {\text{Using a calculator}} \cr & Area \approx 290{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^2} \cr} $$
