To find the area of the triangle formed by the lines \(y = m_1x + c_1\), \(y = m_2x + c_2\), and \(x = 0\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the Points of Intersection 1. **Intersection of the two lines**: Set \(m_1x + c_1 = m_2x + c_2\). - Rearranging gives us: \[ (m_1 - m_2)x = c_2 - c_1 \] ...
