प्रश्न
The area of a triangle with vertices A, B, C is given by ______.
पर्याय
`|vec("AB") xx vec("AC")|`
`1/2|vec("AB") xx vec("AC")|`
`1/4|vec("AC") xx vec("AB")|`
`1/8|vec("AC") xx vec("AB")|`
उत्तर
The area of a triangle with vertices A, B, C is given by `underline(bb(1/2|vec(AB) xx vec(AC)|))`.
Explanation:
The area of the parallelogram with adjacent sides AB and AC = `|vec("AB") xx vec("AC")|`. Hence, the area of the triangle with vertices A, B, C = `1/2|vec("AB") xx vec("AC")|`
