This is the general formula for a conic section that has one focus at the origin; e = 0 corresponds to a circle, 0 < e < 1 corresponds to an ellipse, e = 1 corresponds to a parabola, and e > 1 corresponds to a hyperbola.
The area of a triangle can be demonstrated, for example by means of the congruence of triangles, as half of the area of a parallelogram that has the same base length and height. A graphic derivation of the formula T = h 2 b {\displaystyle T={\frac {h}{2}}b} that avoids the usual procedure of doubling the area of the triangle and then halving it.
A triangle with sides a, b, and c. In geometry, Heron's formula (or Hero's formula) gives the area of a triangle in terms of the three side lengths , , . Letting be the semiperimeter of the triangle, = (+ +), the area is [1]

This formula generalizes Heron's formula for the area of a triangle. A triangle may be regarded as a quadrilateral with one side of length zero. From this perspective, as d approaches zero, a cyclic quadrilateral converges into a cyclic triangle (all triangles are cyclic), and Brahmagupta's formula simplifies to Heron's formula.
In mathematics, Bertrand's postulate (now a theorem) states that, for each , there is a prime such that < <.First conjectured in 1845 by Joseph Bertrand, [1] it was first proven by Chebyshev, and a shorter but also advanced proof was given by Ramanujan.
A lattice triangle is any triangle drawn within a 2D lattice such that all vertices lie on lattice points. By Pick's theorem a lattice triangle has a rational area that either is an integer or a half-integer (has a denominator of 2). If the lattice triangle has integer sides then it is Heronian with integer area. [20]
In geometry, a Heronian triangle (or Heron triangle) is a triangle whose side lengths a, b, and c and area A are all positive integers. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Heronian triangles are named after Heron of Alexandria , based on their relation to Heron's formula which Heron demonstrated with the example triangle of sides 13, 14, 15 and area 84 .
