Could there be another answer to this? I'm told 62.35 and 62 7/20 are wrong.

Thanks!
does it say to any particular decimal place or significant figure?
in surds form= 36√3cm²
Find the area of triangle ABC if AB = BC = 12 and angle ABC = 120 degrees.
B
12 120 12
A C
Area = (1/2) (12) (12)sin (120) =
72 * sin (120) =
72 * √3 / 2 =
36 √3 units ^2 ≈ 62.35 units^2
Maybe they want the exact value [ first answer ]. ACG
36sqrt3 was right! Thanks you guys!
