      Instructions
      1
      Add up the lengths of the three sides of the triangle and divide it by two.


      2
      Calculate the result of the following formula, where X is the result you got from the previous step and a, b, and c are the lengths of the three sides of the triangle:


      (X-a)*(X-b)*(X-c)*(X)


      3
      Take the square root of the result from the previous formula. This will give you the area of the triangle.


      Here is the full equation:


      Area = Square Root [(X-a)*(X-b)*(X-c)*(X)]
