Answer:

C. 240 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

is it stated that two triangles are similar.

If they are similar then their area must be proportional too.

The side lengths' proportion is :

12/60 = 1/5 this can be used to find the area of the smaller triangle, ABC
Let x represent the are of triangle ABC

1/5 = x/1200 cross multiply both sides

5x = 1200 divide both sides by 5

x = 240 since the area is indicated with square value so the answer is

C. 240 in^2
