Step-by-step explanation:
(-3,-2),(5,-3) and(9,12)
x1= -3, x2=5, x3=9
y1=-2, y2= -3, y3=12
|∆|=|1/2|x1(y2-y3)+x2(y3-y1)+x3(y1-y2)
substitute the values
|∆|=|1/2| -3(-3-(+12))+5(12-(-2))+9(-2-(-3))
|∆|=|1/2| -3(-15)+5(14)+9(1)
|∆|=|1/2| 45+70+9
|∆|=|1/2| 124
|∆|=124/2
|∆|=62
So, the area of the triangle is 62cm^2.
