Thread: acute triangle formula needed

Hello,
An acute triangle, three perimeter side lengths are given and that is all that is given. No height, base or angles. Please give a formula to find the area of this type of triangle with only three perimeter numbers only, or explain how to find “b” from the perimeter. Area=1/2*b*h
thanks

Heron's Formula -- from Wolfram MathWorldThis webpage is what you need.

Hi and thank you for your help.
That sight is over me, but i think i found it.

s=9a+b+c)/2
also
area= square root of (s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))


So then will this give me the area from the perimeter?

is the semiperimeter.
Then the
That is the actual area of the triangle with sides of length a, b, & c.

see you.
