Answer: Area = √7436 inches
Explanation:
To determine the area of the triangle, we would apply the heron's rule which is expressed as
Area = √S(S -a)(S - b)(S - c)
Where a, b and c are the length of each side of the triangle.
S = (a + b + c)/2
The length of the sides are 13 inches, 15 inches, and 24 inches
S = (13 + 15 + 24)/2 = 26
Area = √26(26 -13)(26 - 15)(26 - 24)
Area = √26(13)(11)(2)
Area = √7436 inches
