What is the formula for finding the area of a triangle using Heron's formula?
What is the formula for finding the area of a triangle using Heron's formula?
- A = (s(s+a)(s+b)(s+c)), where s is the semi-perimeter and a, b, c are the sides of the triangle
- A = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)), where s is the semi-perimeter and a, b, c are the sides of the triangle (correct)
- A = (s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)), where s is the semi-perimeter and a, b, c are the sides of the triangle
- A = √(s(s+a)(s+b)(s+c)), where s is the semi-perimeter and a, b, c are the sides of the triangle
In Heron's formula, what does 's' represent?
In Heron's formula, what does 's' represent?
