Answer:
a, b, and c can be formed a triangle
The area of the triangle is 13385.87 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Let us revise an important fact in any triangle</em>
- The sum of the lengths of the two shortest side must be greater than the length of the longest side
The length of the sides are a = 240, b = 132, and c = 330
∵ The two shortest sides are a = 240 and b = 132
∵ a + b = 240 + 132 = 372
∵ The longest side is c = 330
∵ 372 > 330
∴ a + b > c
∴ a, b, and c can be formed a triangle
<em>Let us revise the </em><em>Heron's formula</em><em> of the area of the triangle</em>
- Area =
, where a, b,c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle, and

∴
∴
The area of the triangle is 13385.87 square units.
