Answer» Area of a Triangle from SidesYou can calculate the area of a triangle if you know the lengths of all three sides, using a formula that has been known for nearly 2000 years. It is called "Heron's Formula" after Hero of Alexandria (see below) Just use this two step process: Step 1: Calculate "s" (half of the triangles perimeter): s = a+b+c2 Step 2: Then calculate the Area: herons formula A = sqrt( s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) ) PLEASE HIT THE LIKE BUTTON |
