The correct Answer is:
To find the area of the triangle with vertices at the points \( (2,3) \), \( (-3,4) \), and \( (7,5) \), we can use the formula for the area of a triangle given by the coordinates of its vertices: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \left| x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2) \right| \] ### Step 1: Assign the coordinates Let: - \( (x_1, y_1) = (2, 3) \) - \( (x_2, y_2) = (-3, 4) \) - \( (x_3, y_3) = (7, 5) \) ### Step 2: Substitute the values into the formula Substituting the values into the area formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \left| 2(4 - 5) + (-3)(5 - 3) + 7(3 - 4) \right| \] ### Step 3: Calculate each term Now, calculate each term: - First term: \( 2(4 - 5) = 2 \times (-1) = -2 \) - Second term: \( -3(5 - 3) = -3 \times 2 = -6 \) - Third term: \( 7(3 - 4) = 7 \times (-1) = -7 \) ### Step 4: Combine the terms Now combine the terms: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \left| -2 - 6 - 7 \right| = \frac{1}{2} \left| -15 \right| = \frac{1}{2} \times 15 = 7.5 \] ### Step 5: Final area Thus, the area of the triangle is: \[ \text{Area} = 7.5 \text{ square units} \]
