Answer:

The area of the park is [tex]13,581\ yd^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The SAS formula to find the area of triangle is equal to

[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2} (c)(b)sin(A)[/tex]

we have

[tex]c=518\ ft[/tex]

[tex]b=509\ ft[/tex]

[tex]A=68\°[/tex]

remember that

[tex]1\ yd=3\ ft[/tex]

Convert feet to yards

[tex]c=518\ ft=518/3\ yd[/tex]

[tex]b=509\ ft=509/3\ yd[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2} (518/3)(509/3)sin(68\°)=13,581\ yd^{2}[/tex]
