I have a polygon with 4 sides (going clockwise) of 10,12,15,9. I do not know any angles, none of the angles are right angles, the sides are not parallel. If I draw a line diagonally from one corner to another, I now have two triangles within my polygon in which I know the lengths of the two sides. I am unable to physically measure that line I drew or anything else. Nor am I able to measure any angles.
What is the formula, equation or process I would use to determine the length of that diagonal line (the third side of the triangle). Then, how would I calculate the area of each triangle?
