I need help with finding the area to this Triangle. This is Geometry by the way.

9 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

dimensions of rectangle are (7-3),(8-3)

or 4,5

area of rectangle=4×5=20

area of bottom Δ=1/2×4×2=4

area of top Δ=1/2×3×3=9/2

area of right triangle=1/2 ×5×1=5/2

area of Δ HIJ=20-(4+9/2+5/2)

=20-(4+14/2)

=20-(4+7)

=9 sq. units.

or area of triangle =1/2

| 3  5 |

| 7  3 |

|6   8 |

|3   5 |

=1/2[(9-35)+(56-18)+(30-24)]

=1/2[-26+38+6]

=1/2[-26+44]

=1/2(18)

=9 sq. units.
