Answer:
65 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming point O refers to the origin, the segment OA has slope ...
m = Δy/Δx = 5/1 = 5
Then the slope of the perpendicular line AP will be the negative reciprocal of this, -1/5.
The x-intercept of the line through (1, 5) with slope -1/5 can be found by setting y=0 in the point-slope equation for that line:
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
0 -5 = (-1/5)(x -1)
25 = x -1 . . . . . . . multiply by -5
x = 26 . . . . . . . add 1
This means ΔOAP has a base length (OP) of 26 units and an altitude of 5 units. Its area is given by the formula ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(26)(5) = 65 . . . . square units
Triangle OAP has an area of 65 square units.
