triangle areas, various ways

rather big numbers (use a calculator)
the intention, advocated by Ed Southall (solve my maths), is for students to decide which dimensions they need in order to work out the area of a triangle

then they can be asked to calculate it another way
(and possibly a third way)

















the areas are:
(1) 150
(2) 5,070
(3) 302,580
(4) 1,227,930
