Submission of an original manuscript to the Mathematical Communications will be taken to mean that it represents original work not previously published, that it is not being considered elsewhere for publication; and, if accepted for publication, it will be published in print and online form and it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, for commercial purposes, in any language, without the consent of the publisher. The journal takes the stance that the publication of scholarly research is meant to disseminate knowledge and, in a not-for-profit regime, benefits neither publisher nor author financially. It sees itself as having an obligation to its authors and to society to make content available online now that the technology allows for such a possibility.

Abstract

In this paper, we give three area formulas for a triangle in the alpha plane
in terms of the alpha distance. The two of them are alpha versions of the standard area formula for a triangle in the Euclidean plane, and the third one is an alpha version of the well-known Heron's formula.
