For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
We have two points through which the line passes, so we can find the slope:
Thus, the equation is of the form:
We substitute one of the points and find "b":
Finally, the equation is of the form:
ANswer:
Area of a triangle is equal to 1/2 b(h) so since you already have the height and base, all you need to do is input it back into the equation:
(10)(13)
Multiply 10 & 13 to equal
(130)
Then take half of 130 to get
A = 65
Multiply 10 & 13 to equal
Then take half of 130 to get
A = 65
