5.8234 unit²

Explanation:

Let say a is representing angle for side A, b for side B and c for side C.

The area of triangle = 1/2*A*B*sin c.

Angle c is located between side A and B, therefore
c = pi-pi/8-19/24pi
c = pi-22/24 pi = 2/24pi = pi/12

The area of triangle = 1/2*5*9*sin(pi/12)

= 1/2 * 5 * 9 * 0.2588
= 5.8234 unit²#
