No, sorry. @kausarsalley

fourth side = 8 cm as it is a kite having sides 12cm, 12cm, 8cm, 8cm and angles 90 opposite 120 and 75 opposite 75 degrees. area = (12*12/2 + 8*8sin60deg) sqcm = 127.424 sqcm

Uhm, I already did make a-b-c be right angle with sides 12cm long and 90deg between them. I made d be a point that is somewhere between a and c but 8cm from c. distance abc is right angle triangle with hypotenuse ac=12*sqrt(2). And I don't know what to do next. @nathan917
