The area of triangle having vertices (6, -6), (3, -7) and (3, 3) is

Given:

The vertices of the triangle = (6, -6), (3, -7) and (3, 3)

Formula used:

The area of the triangle =     (Where x = y = The vertices of the triangle)

Calculation:

Let us assume the vertices (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂) and (x₃, y₃) are (6, -6), (3, -7) and (3, 3) respectively

⇒ The area of the triangle = 

⇒ 

⇒ 

⇒ 

⇒ 30/2

⇒ 15 sq. unit

∴ The required result will be 15 sq. units.

Additional Information The "Areas" measured by integration are actually signed areas, meaning they can be positive or negative. The areas below the x-axis are negative and the above the x-axis is positive.
