Here an easy method to calculate area of any convex polygon if you know coordinates of all its vertices.
Step 1: Write coordinates one below another in given order and then again write the first one.
eg. here,
(0,0)
(2,3)
(5,8)
(0,0)
Step 2: Multiply by criss cross method.
eg. {(0*3-0*2)+(2*8-3*5)+(5*0-8*0)}
=1
Step 3: Divide the answer by 2. That's your answer.
Note: Area cannot be negative, so if answer comes out to be negative, then multiply it by -1 to make it positive, then that will be your answer.
