\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I will answer only the first part of the question regarding the area of the park (the area of the given triangle). \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use the Heron's formula for the triangle area:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"S\" = \"sqrt%28p%28p-a%29%28p-b%29%28p-c%29%29\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "named after the ancient Greek mathematician Heron. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here  \"a\",  \"b\"  and  \"c\"  are the measures of a triangle sides and  \"p\"  is half of the perimeter:  \"p\" = \"%28a+%2B+b+%2B+c%29%2F2\". \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In our case a = 120 m, b= 50 m, and c = 80 m. Hence, the semi-perimeter is \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"p\" = \"%28120+%2B+50+%2B+80%29%2F2\" = \"250%2F2\" = \"125\" \"m\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and the area of the given triangle is \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"S\" = \"sqrt%28125%2A%28125-120%29%2A%28125-50%29%2A%28125-80%29%29\" = \"sqrt%28125%2A5%2A75%2A45%29\" = \"sqrt%285%5E7%2A3%5E3%29\" = \"5%5E3\".\"3\".\"sqrt%2815%29\" = \"375\".\"sqrt%2815%29\" = \"1452.37\" \"m%5E2\" (approximately).\r
