Answer:
72 sqrt(3) ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
We can find the height by
tan theta = opp /adj
tan 60 = h /12
12 tan 60 = h
12 sqrt(3) = h
Then we can find the area
A = 1/2 bh where b is the length of the base and h is the height
A = 1/2 ( 12) ( 12 sqrt(3))
A = 72 sqrt(3) ft^2
