What is the area of oblique triangles?
Use the Hero's formula: Let s = (a + b + c)/2. Then the area of the triangle equals√[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)], where a, b, and c denote the sides of the triangle.
How do you find the area of an oblique triangle which 3 sides are given?
Let the sides be a, b, c Area = sq rt [s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] where s= 1/2 (a+b+c)
What is the formula for the surface area and volume of a triangular prism?
The answer depends on the information that you do have. Suppose you know all the edge lengths: the three sides of the triangle are a, b and c and the length of the prism is d. Let s = (a + b + c)/2 Then the area of the triangular cross section is sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)] square units. So, surface area = 2*sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)] + d*(a+b+c) square units. Volume = sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)]*d cubic units.
How do you calculate the area of a surface of which all four sides are unequal?
Let A,B,C,D Four different sides with different lengths. Apply the following formula. A = Sqrt ( ( s-a) ( s-b) (s-c) (s-c) ) Where S = ( a+b+c+d) / 2.
What is the area of a triangle 17m by 17m by 30m?
120 sq metres. To see how you get this answer, read on: If the sides are a, b and c, then calculate s = 0.5*(a+b+c) Then the area is sqrt[s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)]
