The angle between the legs of length 16 and 18 has measure 90 + 55 = 145 degrees.

Now use the law of cosines: it says d satisfies

d^2=16^2+18^2-2(16)(18)\cos145^\circ

and solving for d gives

d=\sqrt{16^2+18^2-2(16)(18)\cos14^\circ}\implies d\approx32

so the answer is C.

The hight length : h

The base length : a

Apply the Pythagorean theorem in the right triangle :

h² = 13² - (10/2) = 144

h  = √144 = 12 cm

S = (a x h)/ 2 = ( 10 x 12 )/2 = 60 cm²
