ANSWER

15 square units.

EXPLANATION

This triangle has one of its height(altitudes) falling outside the triangle.

We determine the base using absolute value method. This is because the coordinates of R(-4,2) and S(1,2) tell us that this line is horizontal. The y-values are constant.

Therefore |RS|=|1--4|

\Rightarrow |RS|=|1+4|

\Rightarrow |RS|=|5|

\Rightarrow |RS|=5

Also

The triangle is bounded between y=2 and y=-4.

Therefore the vertical height of interest,

|RT|=|-4-2|

|RT|=|-6|

|RT|=6

We can now find the area using the formula

Area=\frac{1}{2}base\times height

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times6 \times 5

Area=3 \times 5

Area=15 square units
