उत्तर
By joining A and C, we get two triangles ABC and ACD .
`" let" A (x_1,y_1)=A(-5,7) , B(x_2,y_2) = B(-4,-5) , C (x_3,y_3) = c (-1,-6) and D(x_4,y_4) = D(4,5)`
Then
`"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[-5(-5+6)-4(-6-7)-1(7+5)]`
`=1/2[-5+52-12]=35/2` sq. units
`"Area of" Δ ACD = 1/2 [x_1(y_3-y_4)+x_3(y_4-y_1)+x_4(y_1-y_3)]`
`=1/2 [-5(-6-5)-1(5-7)+4(7+6)]`
`=1/2[55+2+52]=109/2 `sq. units
So, the area of the quadrilateral ABCD is `35/2+109/2=72 ` sq .units.
