Sam owns a triangular piece of land on which the taxcollector wishes to determine the correctproperty tax. Sam tells the collector that “the firstside lies on a straight section of road and the secondside is a stone wall. The wall meets the road at a24-degree angle. The third side of the property isformed by a 180-foot-long fence, which meets the wallat a point that is 340 feet from the corner wherethe wall meets the road.” After a little thought, the tax collector realizes that Sam’s descriptionof hisproperty is ambiguous, because there are still twopossible lengths for the first side. By means ofa cleardiagram, explain this situation, and calculate thetwo possible areas, to the nearest square foot.
