Find the area. 5cm 3cm 4 cm

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3 side lengths are given, I assume that this figure is a triangle. The area of a triangle can be determined by using hero's formula.

$\text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}$

⇒ s = Perimeter/2

⇒ a, b, and c = side lenths of triangle

Replacing a, b, and c as the given side lengths:

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{s(s - 5)(s - 3)(s - 4)}$

Determining the perimeter of the triangle:

$\text{Perimeter of triangle = Sum of it's side lengths}$

$\implies \text{Perimeter of triangle =}\ 5 + 4 + 3$

$\implies \text{Perimeter of triangle =}\ 12 \ \text{cm}$

Determining the half of perimeter:

$\text{Half of perimeter} = s = \dfrac{\text{Perimeter}}{2}$

$\implies s = \dfrac{12}{2}$

$\implies s = 6$

Replacing the value of "s" in the formula:

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{6(6 - 5)(6 - 3)(6 - 4)}$

Evaluating the area:

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{6(6 - 5)(6 - 3)(6 - 4)}$

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{6(1)(3)(2)}$

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = \sqrt{\text{6(6)}$

$\implies \text{Area of triangle} = 6 \ \text{cm}^{2}$
