Question

Find the area of the following triangles 8 cm, 5cm, 6 cm
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The sides are 6cm,8cm,10cm

$a = 6 \\ b = 8 \\ c = 10$

$s = \binom{a + b + c}{2}$

$s = \binom{6 + 8 + 10}{2}$

$s = \binom{24}{2}$

$s = 12$

The area is given as

$\sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)}$

$\sqrt{12(12 - 6)(12 - 8)(12 - 10)}$

$\sqrt{576}$

$24 {cm}^{2}$
