is closest to its area?
(1) 4.68
(3) 7.12
(2) 5.93
(4) 8.76​

Answer:

Option(1) is the correct answer to the given question .

Step-by-step explanation:

let     [tex]x1, y1=\ (2, 3)[/tex]

[tex](x2,y2)=(\sqrt{15,3} \ )[/tex]

[tex](x3,y3)=\ (4,8)[/tex]

Now we know that

[tex]Area=\ \frac{1}{2} |x1(y2-y3)\ + \ x2(y3-y1)\ + x3(y1-y2)[/tex]

Now putting this value in the formula we get

[tex]\frac{1}{2}|2(3-8)\ +\sqrt{15}(8-3)\ * 4(5-3)|[/tex]

[tex]=\ \frac{1}{2}\ *9.3649[/tex]

=4.6824

Therefore option(1) is the correct answer .
