We start by graphing the vertices and drawing the figure:

We have a triangle with base b = 5 (the distance between (3,-2) and (-2,-2)) and height h = 2 (the perpendicular distance from the base to the vertex (0,0)).

We can calculate the area of this triangle as:


A=(1)/(2)bh=(1)/(2)\cdot5\cdot2=5

Answer: A = 5 units²
