⇒ s = a+b+c2=5+12+132 a + b + c 2 = 5 + 12 + 13 2 = 15 cm.
Area of the base = √s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)
= √15×10×3×2 15 × 10 × 3 × 2 cm2 = 30 cm2
Step-by-step explanation:
here is the answer for your question
The dimensions given when you have a triangle is the base and height of the triangle. The formula for the area is
A = 0.5bh
The unknown here is h. We can determine that from the cost of mulch that covers the whole area of the triangle. The equation would be:
4A = 33
Substituting A = 0.5*5.5*h = 2.75h to the equation:
4(2.75h) = 33
11h = 33
h = 33/11
h = 3 feet
