Now that you have all the numbers you need, plug them into the formula, like so:

Page 44: Area & Volumetric Determination. A Point No length, no width, no depth.. No Dimensions

Now that you have all the numbers you need, plug them into the formula, like so:

92.5(92.5-44)(92.5-80)(92.5-61)A=

Page 45: Area & Volumetric Determination. A Point No length, no width, no depth.. No Dimensions

Then, following standard order of operations, do the math!

92.5(92.5-44)(92.5-80)(92.5-61)A=
