Two of the sides are 8 in.
lila made a triangular flag to cheer on her favorite sports team. the perimeter of the flag is 20 inches.

heron’s formula: area = square root s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

approximately how many square inches of fabric were used to make the triangular flag?

15 square inches
76 square inches
186 square inches
215 square inches

Given that we have a perimeter of 20 inches and 2 sides are 8 inches each, the third side is equal to 4 inches. Solving for s which is the semiperimeter,

                                                  S = 20/2 = 10

Using Heron’s formula,

                        A = sqrt of  (10)(10-8)(10-8)(10-4) = 15.49 in2

Thus, the answer for this item is the first choice. 

15 square inches
