Question

What is the area of the triangle? 5 4 3 units?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

area = 0.25 * √( (a + b + c) * (-a + b + c) * (a - b + c) * (a + b - c) )

Assign variables:

A = 5, B = 4, C = 3.

Distribute:

area = 0.25 * √( (5 + 4 + 3) * (-5 + 4 + 3) * (5 - 4 + 3) * (5 + 4 - 3) )

Combine like terms

area = 0.25 * √( (12) * (2) * (4) * (6) )

Multiply:

area = 0.25 * √(576)

Square root:

area = 0.25 * 24

Multiply:

area = 6 units squared
