I read this sentence while I was doing a duolingo course of Esperanto.

Adamo havas tri-jaraĝan filon

I understand the meaning of putting -aĝ in there, but shouldn't it be 'tri-jaran'?

I'm confusing since I learned 'Mi estas ( )-yara.' in Lernu! before. Are these both correct and I have to use it separately or something?

Both variants are correct.

One is more akin to saying "his son is three" and the other is more akin to saying "his son is three years old" or "three years of age".
