What is the area of triangle pqr on the grid? a triangle pqr is shown on a grid. the vertex p is on ordered pair 7 and 6, vertex
2 answers:
P(7,6), Q(1,6), R(4,2)
We have PQ parallel to the x axis. We'll call that the base,
b = 7 - 1 = 6
The altitude is then the y difference h = 6 - 2 = 4
The area is
Answer: 12 square units
In general we can use the shoelace formula for the area of any polygon given coordinates. We write the points like this:
(7,6), (1,6), (4,2)
(1,6), (4,2), (7,6)
The area is then half the absolute value of the sum of the cross products:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the question we refresh our knowledge of the quotient rule.
For a function f(x) express as a ratio of another functions u(x) and v(x) i.e
, the derivative is express as
from
we assign u(x)=lnx and v(x)=x^2
and the derivatives
.
Note the expression used in determining the derivative of the logarithm function.it was obtain from the general expression of logarithm derivative i.e
If we substitute values into the quotient expression we arrive at
