thats correct, the heron′s rule is wrong

no. Heron′s Rule is not wrong. but it only  applies to triangles. even in this special case  of a degenerated triangle it′s true: the area  of a triangle is (L/4) which indeed is zero here.

This is right.  Draw one side AB then take a  compass and from each point draw   a circle whose radius will be equal  to your desired side. Then  intersection of these circles will be  point C.

A_△  = 0

$${A}_{\bigtriangleup} \:=\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$
