    If in a triangle ABC side \[a=(\sqrt{3}+1)\]cms and \[\angle B={{30}^{o}},\] \[\angle C={{45}^{o}}\], then the area of the triangle is  [MP PET 1997]

    A) \[\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{3}c{{m}^{2}}\]

    B) \[\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2}c{{m}^{2}}\]

    C) \[\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2\sqrt{2}}c{{m}^{2}}\]

    D) \[\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{3\sqrt{2}}c{{m}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[\Delta =\frac{1}{2}\frac{{{a}^{2}}\sin B\sin C}{\sin (B+C)}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{{{(\sqrt{3}+1)}^{2}}.\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}}{\frac{(\sqrt{3}+1)}{2\sqrt{2}}}=\frac{\sqrt{3}+1}{2}\].
