The points (0,0)(3,0)(0,4) are the midpoints of 3 sides of a triangle. find its area?

Question

Nikki · Answer

Given that the midpoint of triangle is (0,0),(3,0),(0,4).then join these points we get a traingle and find the slopes of the lines joint these points we get 0/-3,4/0,-4/3.now the lines joing these points are parallel to the third side of the original triangle.then find the equation of the original triangle we get y=4,x=3&4x+3y=0.finding out the point of these lines we get the vertices of the original triangle i.e. (3,-4),(3,4),(-3,4). finding the area by taking determinant of these points we get 24 sq.units
