3-34.98(B)

Explanation:

I just took the test!!!

Answer 2

Hello!

The answers are:

C) SSS

C) Heron's formula

B)
`34.98Units^(2)`

Why?

1 - Since we are given all sides length, we can use it to calculate the area of the triangle.

2 - Since we know all the sides length, we can calculate the area using the Heron's formula, wich states that:

`A=√(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))`

Where:

`s=(a+b+c)/(2)\\a=FirstSideLength=10Units\\b=SecondSideLength=7Units\\c=ThirdSideLength=12Units\\`

3 - Calculating the area:

`s=(10+7+12+)/(2)=14.5`

`A=√(14.5(14.5-10)(14.5-7)(14.5-12))`

`A=√(1223.44)`

`A=34.98Units^(2)`

Have a nice day!
