Find the area of the quadrilateral whose vertices, taken in order, are (– 4, – 2), (– 3, – 5), (3, – 2) and (2, 3).


Let the vertices of quadrilateral are A(—4, -2), B(-3, -5), C(3, -2) and D(2, 3).


Let the vertices of quadrilateral are A(—4, -2), B(-3, -5), C(3, -2

Area of ∆ABC

equals 1 half left square bracket straight x subscript 1 left parenthesis straight y subscript 2 minus straight y subscript 3 right parenthesis plus straight x subscript 2 left parenthesis straight y subscript 3 minus straight y subscript 1 right parenthesis plus straight x subscript 3 left parenthesis straight y subscript 1 minus straight y subscript 2 right parenthesis right square bracket

Here, we have
x1 = -4,    y1 = -2
x2 = -3,    y2 -5
x3 = 3,    y3 = -2
x3 = 3,    y3 = -2
Now, area of ∆ABC
equals 1 half left square bracket negative 4 left parenthesis negative 5 plus 2 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 3 right parenthesis left parenthesis negative 2 plus 2 right parenthesis plus 3 left parenthesis negative 2 plus 5 right parenthesis right square bracket
equals 1 half left square bracket left parenthesis negative 4 space straight x space minus 3 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 3 space straight x space 0 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis 3 space straight x space 3 right parenthesis right square bracket
equals 1 half left square bracket 12 plus 0 plus 9 right square bracket
equals 1 half straight x space 21
equals space 10.5 space sq. space units
We know that, area of ∆ACD
equals 1 half left square bracket straight x subscript 1 left parenthesis straight y subscript 2 minus straight y subscript 3 right parenthesis plus straight x subscript 2 left parenthesis straight y subscript 3 minus straight y subscript 1 right parenthesis plus straight x subscript 3 left parenthesis straight y subscript 1 minus straight y subscript 2 right parenthesis right square bracket

Here, we have
x1 = -4,    y1 = -2
x2 = 3,    y2 = -2
and    x3 = 2,    y3 = 3
Now, area of ∆ACD

<pre>uncaught exception: <b>mkdir(): Permission denied (errno: 2) in /home/config_admin/public/felixventures.in/public/application/css/plugins/tiny_mce_wiris/integration/lib/com/wiris/util/sys/Store.class.php at line #56mkdir(): Permission denied</b><br /><br />in file: /home/config_admin/public/felixventures.in/public/application/css/plugins/tiny_mce_wiris/integration/lib/com/wiris/util/sys/Store.class.php line 56<br />#0 [internal function]: _hx_error_handler(2, 'mkdir(): Permis...', '/home/config_ad...', 56, Array)

#6 {main}</pre>

Hence, the area of quadrilateral
ABCD = ar (∆ABC) + ar (∆ACD)
= (10.5 + 17.5)
= 28 sq. units.
