To find area $ A $ use formula:

$$ A = \dfrac{ a \cdot a \cdot \sin( \alpha ) }{ 1 } $$

After substituting $a = 12\, \text{cm}$, $a = 12\, \text{cm}$ and $\alpha = 30^o$ we have:

$$ A = \dfrac{ 12\, \text{cm} \cdot 12\, \text{cm} \cdot \sin( 30^o ) }{ 1 } $$ $$ A = \dfrac{ 12\, \text{cm} \cdot 12\, \text{cm} \cdot \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } }{ 1 } $$ $$ A = \dfrac{ 144\, \text{cm}^2 \cdot \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } }{ 1 } $$ $$ A = \dfrac{ 72\, \text{cm}^2 }{ 1 } $$ $$ A = 72\, \text{cm}^2 $$
