by using herons formula
side = a unit
s=( a+a+a)/2
s = 3a/2
area = √s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)
= √3a/2 (3a/2-a)(3a/2-a)(3a/2-a)
=√ 3a/2( 3a/2- a)
= √ 3a/2( 3a-a/ 2)
= √ 3a/2 x 2a/2
= √ 6a²/ 4
=√ 3 a²/2
hence proved the area formula
side = a unit

= √3a/2 (3a/2-a)(3a/2-a)(3a/2-a)
=√ 3a/2( 3a/2- a)
= √ 3a/2( 3a-a/ 2)
