Answer 1

Definition. Heron's formula is a formula that can be used to find the area of a triangle, when given its three side lengths. It can be applied to any shape of triangle, as long as we know its three side lengths.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\fbox\pink{✬ S.P = Rs. 59832 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline\green{ɢɪᴠᴇɴ:}$

Cost price of sofa set is Rs 55400.

Bishnu earned 8 % after selling this sofa.

$\underline\green{ᴛᴏ \: ғɪɴᴅ:}$

What is the selling price of sofa ?

$\underline\red{Şᴏʟᴜᴛɪᴏɴ:}$

To find S.P when C.P and profit percent are given we use the following formula.

★ S.P = (100 + Profit%/100) × C.P ★

⇛ S.P = (100 + 8/100) × 55400

⇛ S.P = 108/100 × 55400

⇛ S.P = 108 × 554

⇛ S.P = Rs 59832

Hence, selling price of sofa is Rs. 59832.

[ Verification ]

Profit = S.P – C.P

Profit = 59832 – 55400 = 4432

Using

Profit % = (Profit/C.P × 100)%

⇛ 8 % = (4432/55400 × 100)%

⇛ 8 % = (4432/554)%

⇛ 8 % = 8 %
