The formula ab/2 actually is the formula for finding the area of a right triangle..However there is another formula that finds the area of any triangle.

S=(a+b+c)/2

A=sqr(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))

The picure drawing of the triangle is not drawn to scale and it is not a right triangle.

(a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2) and ab/2 is used first.

  • I don't get it. D; Can you please explain it further?

  • s is all 3 sides divided by 2

    then you subtract the sides from the s

    s-a,s-b,s-c and multiply them and then multiply this product by s and finally take the square root of it.
