A triangle has sides A, B, and C. Sides A and B have lengths of 6 and 8, respectively. The angle between A and C is #(17pi)/24# and the angle between B and C is # (7pi)24#. What is the area of the triangle?

#color(red)("Triangle cannot exist with the given measurements"#

#a = 6, hat A = (7pi)/24, hat B = (17pi) / 24, b = 8#

Since #hat A + hat B = (7pi)/24 + (17pi)/24 = pi#, third angle #hat C# becomes zero .

Hence a triangle cannot exist with the given measurements.
