Trong tam giác vuông ABH:
\(cotB=\dfrac{BH}{AH}\)
Trong tam giác vuông ACH:
\(cotC=\dfrac{CH}{AH}\)
\(\Rightarrow cotB+cotC=\dfrac{BH+CH}{AH}=\dfrac{12}{AH}\)
\(\Rightarrow AH=\dfrac{12}{cot50^0+cot37^0}\)
\(\Rightarrow S_{ABC}=\dfrac{1}{2}AH.BC=\dfrac{1}{2}.\dfrac{12}{cot50^0+cot37^0}.12\approx33,24\)
