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:
eq. of line parallel to AB is y=2x+a
if it passes through (3,-2) then
-2=2×3+a
a=-2-6=-8
y=2x-8

Answer:
(d) see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each grid square is 1/4 unit. the coordinates in terms of grid squares are ...
A(0.50, -1.25) ⇒ (0.50/.25, -1.25/.25) = (2, -5) . . . grid squares
Point A is located 2 squares right and 5 squares down on the grid. This matches choice D.
