Determine whether a triangle can be formed with the given side lengths. if so, use heron's formula to find the area of the triangle. .

given side lengths:
a = 240
b = 133
c = 174

The area of triangle formed by given side lengths is 11317.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle can be formed If the sum of the other 2 sides (except largest side) is longer than the largest side that is a+b>c

Here, given side lengths:

a = 240  

b = 133  

c = 174

Here, largest side is a = 240

so taking sum of other two sides,

b+c = 174+133 = 307 > 240

Hence, triangle can be formed with a, b and c as given lengths.

Calculating area using Heron's formula,

first find the semi perimeter by using given sides,

Substitute values of s, a, b and c in above,

(approx)

Thus, the area of triangle formed by given side lengths is 11317.50.
