We plot the points (2, 0) and (3, 2) on a graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation 2x – y = 4
x + y = 2
⇒ y = 2 – x

We plot the points (2, 0) and (0, 2) on the same graph paper and join the same by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation x + y = 2.
From graph, we see that the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are (2, 0), (0, 2) and (0, –4). The triangle has been shaded.
