the triangle does not exist

checking by the Sine Law:

$a/sin A !=b/sin B$

this means

$12/sin (pi/6)!=5/sin (pi/12)$

$24!=19.3185$

A triangle has sides A, B, and C. Sides A and B have lengths of 12 and 5, respectively. The angle between A and C is (pi)/12(pi)/12 and the angle between B and C is (pi)/6 (pi)/6. What is the area of the triangle?
