If the lengths of three sides of a triangle are known, then the following formula, known as Hero's (or Heron's) formula, is sometimes used: A=√√s(sa)(s - b)(s - c) where a, b, and c are the given lengths of the sides, and s = ft, and d = 190 ft.) ft² 0.5(a+b+c). Use this formula to find the area (correct to the nearest square foot). (Assume a = 150 ft, b d
