For this case, the area is given by:
 A = root ((s) * (s-a) * (s-b) * (s-c))
 Since the triangle is equilateral then:
 a = b = c = 16
 On the other hand,
 s = (a + b + c) / 2
 s = (16 + 16 + 16) / 2
 S = 24
 Substituting values:
 A = root ((24) * (24-16) * (24-16) * (24-16))
 A = 110.8512517
 Rounding off we have:
 A = 111
 Answer:
 the area of the pennant is:
 A.111
