As the figure shows, A is the center of the circle, AB=AC=2, angle BAC is 120 degrees. What is the area of the triangle?

Is there a way to solve it woithout using trignometry

The area is 1/2 (AB) (AC) Sin 120 = 1/2 * 2 * 2 sin120
= 2 sin120

=root 3

You can draw a line bisecting 120 degree triangle, which make two 30-60-90 triangles.

hypotenuse is 2, base is sqrt(3)

2*base = 2sqrt(3)
height = 1

(1/2)*[sqrt(3)]*1 = sqrt(3)
