AREA FORMULAS FOR A TRIANGLE IN THE m-PLANE

In this paper, we give three area formulas for a triangle in them-plane in terms of the m−distance. The two of them are m−version of thestandart area formula for a triangle in the Euclidean plane, and the third oneis a m−version of the well-known Heron s formula

Keywords:

m−distance, m−plane Heron s formula, area of a triangle,
