If the three lengths of the sides of a triangle are known, Heron's formula can be used to find its area. If a, b, and c are the three lengths of the sides, Heron's formula for area is A = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) where s is half the 1 perimeter of the triangle, or s = (a+b+c).

If the three lengths of the sides of a triangle are known, Heron's formula can
be used to find its area. If a, b, and c are the three lengths of the sides,
Heron's formula for area is A = √s(s-a)(s-b)(sc) where s is half the
1
perimeter of the triangle, or s = (a+b+c). Use this formula to find the area
of the triangle.
Give an exact answer.
