Calculation path
Calculate triangle area directly from three side lengths using the semiperimeter. The page evaluates the displayed equation from your supplied values and presents both symbolic and substituted KaTeX working so the arithmetic can be checked.
Calculation pathArea = sqrt[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] Conversion resultArea = sqrt[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)]
What you receive
What you receive

- A symbolic formula plus substituted working with your values
- Visible assumptions, field guidance, and an authoritative learning reference
Use boundary
Choose the maximum decimal places shown. This does not increase source accuracy.
All three strict triangle inequalities must hold.
Use internally consistent units and retain extra precision when carrying the result into another calculation.
