Using the method of integration, find the area of the region bounded by the lines
3x - 2y + 1 = 0, 2x + 3y - 21 = 0 and
x - 5y + 9 = 0.
Given; 3x - 2y + 1 = 0 …… (i)
2x + 3y - 21 = 0 …… (ii)
x - 5y + 9 = 0 …… (iii)
3×(i) + 2×(ii)
⇒ 13x − 39 = 0
⇒ x = 3.
![]()
∴ (3,5) is the intersection point of (i) and (ii).
(ii) − 2×(iii)
⇒ 13y − 39 = 0 ⇒ y = 3.
![]()
∴ (6,3) is the intersection point of (ii) and (iii).
(i) − 3×(iii)
⇒ 13y − 26 = 0
⇒ y = 2.
![]()
∴ (1,2) is the intersection point of (i) and (ii).

∴ Required Area is;
