The area of the triangle is 330cm²
Given
First side = 11cm
Second side = 60cm
Third side = 61cm
To find:
Area of the triangle
Solution:
Using Heron's formula -
s = ( a + b + c )/2
Substituting the values
s = 11 + 60 + 61/2
= 132/2
= 66
Area of triangle = √s ( s - a) (s-b) (s-c)
Substituting the values
= √ 66 ( 66 - 11) ( 66 - 60 ) ( 66 - 61)
= √ 66 ( 55) ( 6) (5)
= √ 6 × 11 × 5 × 11 × 6 × 5
= 11 × 6 × 5
= 330
Answer: The area of the triangle is 330cm²
