Answer:
126.55 sq units
Step-by-step explanation:
The Distance Formula =√[(x1-x2)²-(y1-y2)²]The Heron's Formula =√[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A(x1,y1)=(1,1) B(x2,y2)=(1,4) C(x3,y3)=(5,1)
By using distance formula ,
AB = √[0+9] =3units
BC = √[16+9] =5units
AC = √[16-0] =4units
Now it's time to apply heron's formula for the 3 sides of the triangle,
√[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)]
Here s=semiperimeter of the traiangle = [AB+BC+AC]/2 = 32/2=16units
Let AB=a , BC=b , CA=c
Then substituting in the formula and simplifying,
=√[16(16-3)(16-5)(16-9)]
=√{16*13*11*7}
=√16016
=126.55 square units
Hope it helps you
