Question

According to heron's formula ✓s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) . If a =40 ,b=24 ,c =16.please solve it in detail so that I can understand. Wrong answer would be reported. and would be brainliest. Thank you.

Answer 1

Using heron's formula

first of all , find semi perimeter(s)

s=a+b+c Divided by 2

40+24+16 Divided by 2

=40

root Of s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

root of 40(40-40)(40-24)(40-16)=0 (because 40-40=0)

so answer will be zero

the answer is coming zero because sum of two sides of a triangle should be greater than third side and (sum of two sides)26+14=40 (which is equal to 3rd side.
