a triangle is formed by the straight lines x + 2y - 3=0, 3x - 2y + 7= 0 and y+1=0 find graphically
( 1) the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle
(2) the area of the triangle
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
bhaiya please determine that
what vertices are you want to be that formed on your axis or formed on x axis
and this is the correct way to solve this problem
Answer:
1) Coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are (-1,2) , (-3,-1) and (5,-1).
2)area of the triangle is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
straight lines are ,x +2y -3 =0 ,3x -2y +7 = 0 and y+1 = 0
Let x+2y =3 .........(i)
3x -2y = -7 ........(ii)
and y= -1 ......(iii)
For part 1:
Step 1:
For x+2y = 3
put x = 0 we get y = 1.5,
put y = 0 we get x = 3
Step 2:
For 3x -2y = -7
put x = 0 we get y = 3.5
put y = 0 we get x = -2.33
Ploting the equation x+2y =3 , 3x -2y = -7 and y =-1
in the graph we get the vertices of the triangle are (-1,2) , (-3,-1) and (5,-1)
Part 2:
Name the vertices of the triangle are A,Band C
so , ABC is a triangle in which A (-3,-1) , B (5,-1)and C(-1,2)
Step 1:
By distance formula
BC =
AC =
where from the graph ABC is a triangle in which BC is the height and AC is the base
Therefore ,
Area of a triangle = ×base ×height
= × 3.6× 6.7
= 1.8 ×6.7
Area of triangle ABC = 12 .06 = 12
Final answer:
Hence , the coordinates of the vertices of the triangle is (-3,-1),(5,-1) and (-1,2) and the area of the triangle is 12
