Answer:

C = (30,500)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area = 1800ft^2

A = (6,0)

B = (0,25)

C(x,y) = (30,y)

Required

Determine the coordinates of C

The area of triangle is calculated as thus:

Area = \frac{|A_x(B_y - C_y) + B_x(C_y - A_y) + C_x(A_y - B_y)|}{2}

This gives:

1800= \frac{|6(25 - y) + 0(y - 0) + 30(0 - 25)|}{2}

1800= \frac{|6(25 - y) + 30(0- 25)|}{2}

1800= \frac{|6(25 - y) + 30(-25)|}{2}

1800= \frac{|150 - 6y -750 |}{2}

1800= \frac{|150  -750- 6y |}{2}

1800= \frac{|-600- 6y |}{2}

Multiply through by 2

2 * 1800= |-600- 6y|

3600= |-600- 6y|

3600= |-(600+ 6y)|

3600= 600+ 6y

Solve for 6y

6y = 3600 - 600

6y = 3000

Solve for y

y = 3000/6

y = 500

Hence:

The point is:

C = (30,500)
