This problem can be solved by Heron’s Formula,
A=√s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)
where S (0.5*(a+b+c)) is one half of the perimeter of the triangle, sometimes called the semi-perimeter.
A is the area of the triangle
And a,b,c are the sides of the triangle
So if a=3 cm ,b=5 cm and c=6 cm
thus , Using Heron’s Formula we get the semi-perimeter as 7 cm
and the area as
A= sqrt(7*(7–3)(7–5)(7–6))
thus A= sqrt(7*4*2*1)=sqrt(56)=7.48 sq. cm.
thus the area of the triangle with side 3 cm,5 cm and 6 cm is 7.48 sq cm.
