AB = 34 cm BC = 20 cm AC = 42 cm
s = (34+20+42)/2 = 48 cm
Area of triangle ABC
= √[s (s-a) (s-b)(s-c) ]
= 6 * 4 * 14 cm²
Area of parallelogram is twice the area of triangle ABC.
s = (34+20+42)/2 = 48 cm
Area of triangle ABC
= √[s (s-a) (s-b)(s-c) ]
= 6 * 4 * 14 cm²
Area of parallelogram is twice the area of triangle ABC.

consider the triangle ABC
AB=34
BC=20
CA=42
=>S=(34+20+42)/2
=48
remember that area of a triangle=√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
=√48*14*28*6
=336cm²
area of parallelogram=2*336=672cm²
