-If the Three Lengths of the Sides of a Triangle

Question 300

Multiple Choice

Solve.
-If the three lengths of the sides of a triangle are known, Heron's formula can be used to find its area. and cc are the three lengths of the sides, Heron's formula for area is:
A=s(sa) (sb) (sc) A = \sqrt { s ( s - a ) ( s - b ) ( s - c ) }
where ss is half the perimeter of the triangle, or s=12(a+b+c) s = \frac { 1 } { 2 } ( a + b + c ) .
Use this formula to approximate the area of the triangle to two decimal places, if necessary, when a cm,b=11 cm\mathrm { cm } , \mathrm { b } = 11 \mathrm {~cm} and c=16 cm\mathrm { c } = 16 \mathrm {~cm} .
