    Given the lengths of the sides of the triangle and the angle in between them, we determine the area of the triangle by the equation,

    A = 0.5ab (cos C)

    Substituting,

    A = 0.5 (100 yd) (53.2 yd) (cos 40°)

    A = 2037.68 yd²

    Thus, the area of the pocket park with the given dimensions is approximately 2037.68 yd².
