Question

The coordinates of three vertices of a triangle are (3, 5), (-1, 5), and (-1, -3). What is the area of the triangle?

Answer 1

If you would graph the triangle, one of the legs would be 8 and another would be 5 and the area of a triangle is bxh/2 so the equation is 8x5/2=20un².
Hope this helped! :)
