Answer:

67.5 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The points (-3, 5) and ( -3, 8) form a vertical segment, and the points (-3, 5) and ( 2, 5) form a horizontal segment, so the triangle has a right angle.

The base of the triangle is the segment formed by the points (-3, 5) and ( 2, 5), and their distance is:

D1 = sqrt((-3-2)^2 + (5-5)^2) = 5

The height of the triangle is the segment formed by the points (-3, 5) and ( -3, 8), and their distance is:

D2 = sqrt((-3+3)^2 + (5-8)^2) = 3

If the triangle is dilated by a scale of 3, so the base is D1*3 = 15 and the height is D2*3 = 9, then the area is:

The area of a triangle is Base * Height / 2, so we have that:

Area = 15 * 9 / 2 = 67.5 square units

Answer:

The area of the triangle is 7.5 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the coordinates given as

(-3, 5) (-3, 8) and (2, 5)

Let us call the points A = (-3, 5)

B = (-3, 8) and

C = (2, 5)

Therefore the lengths of the sides of the triangle are

AB = a =  \sqrt{(-3-(-3))^2+(5-8)^2} =  3

AC = b = \sqrt{(-3-2)^2+(5-5)^2} =  5

BC = c = \sqrt{(-3-2)^2+(8-5)^2} =  \sqrt{34}

Therefore the Area can be derived from Heron's formula which is

A =  \sqrt{s\times (s-a)\times (s-b)\times (s-c)} where s = semi perimeter or (a + b + c)/2

Therefore, plugging the values, we get

s =   (3 + 5 + √34)/2 = 6.9155≈6.92

A =  \sqrt{6.92\times (6.92-3)\times (6.92-5)\times (6.92-\sqrt{34} )} = 7.499≈7.5.

dem82 [27]

Answer:

easy 230-80 which is 150 so imagine a triangle with base 150 and hight 130-60=70 so times for area 150×70÷2 because it's triangle which is <em>5</em><em>2</em><em>5</em><em>0</em> so plus that with 130x80 for rectangle which is 10400 and add so it's 15650
