Answer:
The correct option is;
b) 0 sq, units
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertices of the triangle are;
(4, 0), (2, 3), (8, -6)
The distance formula fr finding the length of a segment is given as follows;
Where, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of the end points of the line
For the points (4, 0) and (2, 3) , we have;
√((3 - 0)² + (2 -4)²) = √13
Distance from (4, 0) to (2, 3) = √13
For the points (4, 0) and (8, -6) , we have;
√((-6 - 0)² + (8 -4)²) = √13 =
Distance from (4, 0) to (8, -6) = 2·√13
For the points (2, 3) and (8, -6) , we have;
√((-6 - 3)² + (8 -2)²) = 3·√13 =
Distance from (2, 3) to (8, -6) = 3·√13
Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle = 6·√13
The semi perimeter s = 3·√13
The area of the triangle,
Where;
a, b, and c are the length of the sides of the triangle;
Therefore, the area = 0 sq, units.
