Remember, a number's additive inverse is simply its opposite.
Let's say we have a number a.
The opposite of a is -a, and the opposite of -a is a.
Thus, the additive inverse of
is

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:
