What is the area of triangle whose sides are sqrt(61), sqrt(153), sqrt(388)
You get partial credit for solving it with Heron's Formula, and full (or even extra) credit for using the following hint: each of the numbers 61, 153, and 388 is the product of a square and one or more primes of the form 4k+1.
