Answer:

see image,

Area = 5 units^2

Explanation:

Graph three points to make a triangle.

Use

Area = 1/2•b•h

to find the area.

Fortunately, the base is horizontal and the height is vertical, so we can just count the squares to find those lengths. (If they aren't horizontal and vertical, then you need distance formulas)

see image.
