Triangle Area & Perimeter Calculator

Notes: For Area mode provide base and corresponding height. For Perimeter mode provide three sides (triangle inequality enforced); additional properties (angles, inradius, etc.) are computed.

Triangles are among the basic geometric shapes, utilized in architecture, engineering, measurement, and common problem-solving tasks. Whether you are a student, educator, designer, or engaged in practical measurements, our Triangle Area & Perimeter Calculator simplifies the calculations.

What Is Triangle Area?

The area of a triangle is the total space enclosed within its three sides. In simple terms, it tells you how much surface the triangle covers.

Formula:

Area = 1 2 × Base × Height

Where,

  • Base (b) = Any side considered as the bottom of the triangle
  • Height (h) = Perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex

Triangle Area using Heron’s Formula (if all 3 sides are known)


Area = s (sa) (sb) (sc)

Where,

s = a+b+c 2

and a, b, c are the three sides.

What Is Triangle Perimeter?

The perimeter of a triangle is the total distance around it. It represents the sum of all three sides.


Perimeter = a + b + c

Where a, b, c are the lengths of the sides.
