Solution

Final Answer

True. Heron's Formula is indeed used to calculate the area of triangles given the lengths of all three sides (SAS stands for two sides and the included angle, but Heron's Formula works specifically with the three sides). The formula states that the area A A of a triangle with sides a a , b b , and c c can be calculated as follows:

s=a+b+c2 s = \frac{a + b + c}{2} A=s(sa)(sb)(sc) A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

where s s is the semi-perimeter of the triangle.
