To determine the measure of the angle B, we'll have to use
the following formula that gives the area of triangle:
A =
leg1*leg2*sine of the angle included/2
Since the lengths of
AB and BC and the value of the area of triangle are known, we'll replace them within the
formula above:
64 = 11*15*sin
B/2
We'll multiply both sides by
2:
128 = 165*sin B
sin B =
128/165
sin B = 0.775
B =
50.80 degrees
The included angle ABC measures
50.80 degrees.
