Critical Evaluation of Chapter 12: Heron’s Formula
Critical Evaluation of Chapter 12: Heron’s Formula ### **1. Understanding Heron’s Formula** Heron’s formula is used to calculate the **area of a triangle** when all three sides are known. The formula is: \[ \text{Area} = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} \] where \[ s = \frac{a+b+c}{2} \] is the **semi-perimeter** of the triangle. This formula is **particularly useful for … Read more
