Aryabhata's Theorem

Aryabhata's Theorem is a mathematical principle attributed to the ancient Indian mathematician Aryabhata. It relates to calculating the area of a triangle in a specific context: if you know the lengths of the three sides of a triangle, you can determine its area using a formula derived from the semi-perimeter of the triangle. This theorem highlights Aryabhata’s contributions to geometry and algebra, illustrating the advanced mathematical understanding in ancient India and its influence on future mathematical developments.
