ANSWER:

The area of the triangle with sides a=5, b=8 and c=11 is  

SOLUTION:

Given, a = 5, b = 8, c = 11.

We need to find the area of the triangle with sides as given.

Let us find the area of triangle using heron’s formula:

Now, let us calculate value of s and put it in heron’s formula.

Substitute s value in heron’s formula along with a, b, c values.

Thus the area of the triangle with sides a=5, b=8 and c=11 is
