Answer:
I am assuming O as (0, 0)
1) O is mid point /coodinates are (0, 0)
Point C lies on x axis so it would (3, 0) and point B will be(-3, 0) as O is mid point
(as 6/2=3)
Now we know AC = 6 units as triangle is Equilateral and OC =3 units
2) By Pythagoras theorem
OA^2 + OC^2 = AC^2
so OA =√AC^2 - OC^2
OA =√6^2 - 3^2
OA = √36-9
OA = 5
and point A lies on y axis so x coordinate is 0
i:e: point coordinates are (0, 5)
3) Area of triangle will be 1/2 base * height
=1/2 6*5
=15 unit^2
