Answer:
8.5
Explanation:
slope of the line that contains KL
(y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
(0-1)/(7-3)
m = -1/4
slope of the line that contains JK
(5-1)/(4-3)
m = 4
the linea are perpendicular so triangle is right
area = (leg1 x leg2)/2
KL =
![√((7-3)^2 + (0-1)^2) = √(16 + 1) = √(17)](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/college/73i8kltmazi323q1kid0fbrxet0u59mgp5.png)
KJ =
![√((4-3)^2 + (5-1)^2)= √(1 + 16) = √(17)](https://img.qammunity.org/2022/formulas/mathematics/college/wpcj5adp1edey5olkj3p9doylh60h8qml0.png)
area = (√17)^2/2 = 17/2 = 8.5
