A Heronian triangle is a triangle that has side lengths and area that are all integers.

Also,


"Area=\\frac{1}{2}base\\times height\\\\=\\frac{1}{2}base\\times 40\\\\=base\\times 20"

For area to be integer the base should be a natural number. Lengths of two other sides of the triangle also should be natural.
