उत्तर
By joining A and C, we get two triangles ABC and ACD.
`" let" A(x_1,y_1) = A(-3,-1) , B(x_2,y_2)=B(-2,-4) , C(x_3,y_3) = C(4,-1) and Then D (x_4,y_4)= D(3,4)`
`"Area of " Δ ABC = 1/2[x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)]`
`=1/2 [-3(-4+1)-2(-1+1)+4(-1+4)]`
`=1/2 [9-0+12]=21/2 ` sq. units
`"Area of " ΔACD =1/2 [x_1(y_3-y_4)+x_3(y_4-y_1)+x_4(y_1-y_3)]`
`=1/2 [-3(-1-4)+4(4+1)+3(-1+1)]`
`=1/2 [15+20+0]=35/2` sq. units
So, the area of the quadrilateral ABCD is `21/2+35/2=28 `.sq units sq units
