Answer:
You could use the polygon area formula OR here's an easier solution
We draw the lines DC and DE
Angle ADC = 120°
Triangle ADC is a 30 60 90 triangle
In such a triangle Line AE = hypotenuse * sq root (3) /2
Line AE = 3 * 0.8660254038 = 2.5980762114
Line DE = 1.5
Area of Triangle ADE = .5 * 1.5 * 2.5980762114 =
1.9485571586 square meters and entire area of Triangle
ABC = 6 * 1.9485571586
which equals 11.6913429513 square meters
