Answer:

13170 units^2 to the nearest whole number.

Explanation:

Use Heron's formula:

Area = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

s = the semi-perimeter

= (155 + 175 + 260) / 2

= 590/2 = 295.

Area = √ [295(295-155)(295-175(295-260)]

= √ 173460000

= 13170.42 units^2.

Answer:

13170

Explanation:

We could just use heron's formula

S=(a+b+c)/2=(155+175+260)/2=295

area=sqrt(S(S-a)(S-b)(S-c))

area=sqrt(295(140)(120)(35))

area=sqrt(173460000)

area=13170 is closest whole number

you could check my work for little errors before you enter anything in if you want :p
