#2.9squnit#

Given

#A,B,C " are three sides of a triangle"#

#A=2 and B =3#

#"Angle between A & C"=((5pi)/24)#

#"Angle between B & C"=((3pi)/8)#

#"Let Angle between A & B"=theta#
#=pi-(3pi)/8-(5pi)/24=((24-9-5)pi)/24=(5pi)/12#

#"Area of triangle"=1/2*A*B*sintheta#

#=1/2*2*3*sin((5pi)/12)=2.9squnit#
