Given :

Vertices of triangle  ​(−4, 0)​, ​(−3, 1)​ , (0, −2), and (−1, −3).

To Find :

The area of a rectangle.

Solution :

Breadth of triangle :

[tex]B = \sqrt{(-4-(-3))^2+(0-1)^2}\\\\B = \sqrt{1^2+1^2}\\\\B = \sqrt{2}\ units[/tex]

Length of triangle :

[tex]L = \sqrt{(-4-0)^2+(0-(-2))^2}\\\\L = \sqrt{16+4}\\\\L = 2\sqrt{5}\ units[/tex]

Now, area is given by :

A = L×B

A = √2×2√5

A = 2√10 units

Therefore, the area is 2√10 units.

Hence, this is the required solution.
