Question

Find the area of apjoning figure
(Heron's formula.)
a=5
b=26
c=2
s=?
​

Answer 1

Given that,

a = 5

b = 26

c = 2.

Let's find the side of the triangle = a+b+c/2

⇒ 5+26+2/2

⇒ 33/2

⇒ 16.5

According to the herons formula,

Area of the triangle = $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\\\sqrt{16.5(16.5-5)(16.5-26)(16.5-2)}\\\sqrt{16.5(11.5)(-9.5)(14.5)}\\\sqrt{26138.0625} \\161.67 (approximately)$.

∴ Area of the triangle is 161.67 units².

Hope this helps you.
