This will be done in two steps.
\n" ); document.write( "The first step is to find the area, we will use Heron's formula.
\n" ); document.write( "Area = $\"sqrt%28s%28s+-+a%29%28s+-+b%29%28s-c%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "s = (a + b + c) / 2
\n" ); document.write( "112/2 = 56 = s
\n" ); document.write( "Area = $\"sqrt%2856%2856+-+44%29%2856+-+38%29%2856-30%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Area = $\"sqrt%2856%2A12+%2A18%2A26%29\"$ = 560.8 cm
\n" ); document.write( "===========================================================
\n" ); document.write( "Now, we are able to use the formula area = 1/2b*h
\n" ); document.write( "1121.6 = 44 *h
\n" ); document.write( "h =25.5 cm.
