If A(x, y), B(1, 2) and C(2, 1) are the vertices of a triangle of area 6 square unit, show that x+y=15 or-9
Given: A triangle with vertices A(x, y), B(1, 2) and C (2, 1)
To find: x + y = 15 or -9
The area is 6 square units.
Area of triangle ![]()
![]()
[x + 1 – y + 2y - 4] = 12
[x + y - 3] = 12
x + y =15
Hence, Proved
