Step-by-step explanation:
For Triangle -->
Area = 1/2 {x1(y2-y3)+x2(y3-y1)+x3(y1-y2)}
5 = 1/2 { 2(-2-y3)+3(y3-1)+x3(1+2)}
10 = -2(2+y3) + 3(y3-1) + 3x3
-4 - 2y3 + 3y3 - 3 + 3x3 = 10
3x3 + y3 = 17 -------(1)
x3 - y3 = -3 --------(2) (already given)
-------------------------
4x3 = 14
x3 = 14/4 = 7/2
3(7/2) + y3 = 17
y3 = 17 - 21/2 = 13/2
Third vertex is ( 7/2 , 13/2 )
