Q: Which formula is used to find the area of a triangle when two sides and the included angle are known (SAS)?

$$Area = \\frac{1}{2} ab \\sin C$$

Q: Which of the following is the correct formula for the area of a triangle when the height is known?

$$Area = \\frac{1}{2} \\times base \\times height$$

Q: Why is the formula $$Area = \\frac{1}{2} ab \\sin C$$ valid for any triangle, not just right triangles?

Because $$\\sin C$$ gives the ratio of the height to side $$b$$
