Question

we always take the area of quadrilateral as​

Answer 1

Answer:

If you get the area of a quadrilateral as a negative value, take it as positive. Because, thearea of the quadrilateral is never negative. That is, we always take the area of quadrilateral as positive.

AREA OF QUADRILATERAL WHEN FOUR VERTICES ARE GIVEN

Let us consider the quadrilateral ABCD shown below.

In the above quadrilateral, A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), C(x3, y3) and D(x4, y4) are the vertices.

To find area of the quadrilateral ABCD, now we have take the vertices A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), C(x3, y3) and D(x4, y4) of the quadrilateral ABCD in order (counter clockwise direction) and write them column-wise as shown below.

Add the diagonal products x1y2, x2y3, x3y4 and x4y1 are shown in the dark arrows.

(x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y4 + x4y1) -----(1)

Add the diagonal products x2y1, x3y2, x4y3 and x1y4 are shown in the dotted arrows.

(x2y1 + x3y2 + x4y3 + x1y4) -----(2)

Subtract (2) from (1) and multiply the difference by 1/2 to get area of the quadrilateral ABCD.

So, area of the quadrilateral ABCD is

= (1/2) ⋅ {(x1y2 + x2y3 + x3y4 + x4y1)

- (x2y1 + x3y2 + x4y3 + x1y4)}
