In hABC, b=3, c=4, and A=45degrees. Expreesed in simplest radical form, what is the area of hABC?
What i want to find out is what is the meaning of "h" in "hABC"?

area=1/2bcsinA
=1/2(3)(4)*rt2/2
=3rt2 square units

Rfamilymember's got 'almost' the right answer for the area (as he usually does âº). It should be 6*â2/2.
But as to what the h stands for....... You got me. I would have expected the little 'triangle drawing' (it's technical name is 'delta'). Maybe it's a misprint?
