Answer:
22 square foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider PQR be a triangle, such that PQ=9 feet, PR=10 feet.
Now, Perimeter of triangle=24
⇒Sum of all the sides=24
⇒PQ+PR+QR=24
⇒9+10+QR=24
⇒QR=5 feet
Also, s=[tex]\frac{a+b+c}{2}=\frac{9+10+5}{2}=12[/tex]
Area of triangle A=[tex]\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]
=[tex]\sqrt{12(12-9)(12-10)(12-5)}[/tex]
=[tex]\sqrt{12(3)(2)(7)}[/tex]
=[tex]\sqrt{504}[/tex]
=[tex]22.44[/tex]
≈[tex]22sq foot[/tex]
thus, area of triangle=22 square foot.
