The sides of a triangle are 15cm, 8cm and 17cm. Find its area -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

Answer:- As we know herons formula =                  √[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] Now here a=15cm, b=8cm, c=17cm And, s=20cm Then, area is=√[20*5*12*3]                          =√3600                          =60cm² Therefore the Area is 60cm². Regards, Rishikesh
