Answer:

x_2=x_1

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the slope formula;

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

This line is vertical if the denominator is zero.

That is when x_2-x-1=0

This implies that;

x_2=x_1

Justification;

When x_2=x_1, then, the line passes through;

(x_1,y_1)  and (x_1,y_2)

The slope now become

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_1-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{0}

The equation of the line is

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{0}(x-x_1)

This implies that;

0(y-y_1)=(y_2-y_1)(x-x_1)

0=(y_2-y_1)(x-x_1)

\frac{0}{y_2-y_1}=(x-x_1)

0=(x-x_1)

x=x_1... This is the equation of a vertical line.

We divide the quadrilateral in two triangles (using either of the diagonals), calculate the (positive value of) the areas of each triangle, and add these values to obtain the total area.
