Solution 1

25.9 million results. Wow.... GOOGLE[^] is your friend and you should visit him often. What you need to do is find a link in the list I've provided which gives you the algorithm and then convert that into the code language of your choice. Happy hunting.

Solution 2

You should try this:

C#

//Suppose your three sides are a, b & c
private double area(double a, double b, double c){
    double s = (a + b + c) / 2;
    return Math.Sqrt(s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c));
}

Please don't just provide a code solution to someone asking a blatant homework question. What will the OP learn from that. What we want to do is show them how to figure out the answer. By just giving them something to copy/paste they are not learning anything. (I haven't voted on your answer as it is correct)
