Question

What is the area of this triangle in the coordinate plane? 5 units 6 units 7 units 12 units? ​

Answer 1

The area of the given triangle is 6 units²

Answer 2

6 units

Explanation:

Using readings taken from the coordinate upon which the triangle is drawn :

The area of triangle is given as :

Area of triangle = 0.5 * base * height

The base of the triangle = 4 units

The height of the triangle = 3 units

The Area of the triangle is thus :

0.5 * 4 * 3

0.5 * 12

= 6 units
