Answer:
The area of the triangle is 18.70 sq.units.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is provided that a triangle is bounded by the y-axis, the line .
The slope of the line is:
A perpendicular line passes through the origin to the line f (x).
The slope of this perpendicular line is:
The equation of perpendicular line passing through origin is:
Compute the intersecting point between the lines as follows:
The value of <em>y</em> is:
The intersecting point is .
The <em>y</em>-intercept of the line f (x) is, 9, i.e. the point is (0, 9).
So, the triangle is bounded by the points:
(0, 0), (0, 9) and
Consider the diagram attached.
Compute the area of the triangle as follows:
Thus, the area of the triangle is 18.70 sq.units.
