Let ABC be a triangle, and let its angle bisectors be AD, BE, and CF which intersect at I. If DI=3, BD=4 and BI=6 then compute the area of triangle BID.
Let's use Heron's Formula to solve this problem.
First, let's note what Heron's Formula is. The formula states that Area of Triangle=√s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c) for a triangle with sides a,b,c and semiperimeter of a+b+c2. We can use this formula to find the area of BID.
First, let's find the semiperimeter. Plugging in values, we get 3+4+62=132 as semiperimeter.
Now, we can go forward and find the area. We get
Area=√132(132−3)(132−4)(132−6)
Area=√45516=√4554
This rounds to approximately 5.3327.
Thanks! :)
