उत्तर
It is given that A(−3, 5), B(−2, −7), C(1, −8) and D(6, 3) are the vertices of a quadrilateral ABCD.
Area of the quadrilateral ABCD = Area of ∆ABC + Area of ∆ACD
\[\text{ ar } \left( ∆ ABC \right) = \frac{1}{2}\left| x_1 \left( y_2 - y_3 \right) + x_2 \left( y_3 - y_1 \right) + x_3 \left( y_1 - y_2 \right) \right|\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2}\left| - 3\left[ - 7 - \left( - 8 \right) \right] + \left( - 2 \right)\left( - 8 - 5 \right) + 1\left[ 5 - \left( - 7 \right) \right] \right|\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2}\left| - 3 + 26 + 12 \right|\]
\[ = \frac{35}{2}\text{ square units } \]
\[\text{ ar } \left( ∆ ACD \right) = \frac{1}{2}\left| x_1 \left( y_2 - y_3 \right) + x_2 \left( y_3 - y_1 \right) + x_3 \left( y_1 - y_2 \right) \right|\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2}\left| - 3\left( - 8 - 3 \right) + 1\left( 3 - 5 \right) + 6\left[ 5 - \left( - 8 \right) \right] \right|\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2}\left| 33 - 2 + 78 \right|\]
\[ = \frac{109}{2} \text{ square units } \]
∴ Area of the quadrilateral ABCD =\[\frac{35}{2} + \frac{109}{2} = \frac{144}{2} = 72\] square units
Hence, the area of the given quadrilateral is 72 square units.

If the points P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y) are collinear, then find the relation between x and y.
Given points are P(1, 2), Q(0, 0) and R(x, y).
The given points are collinear, so the area of the triangle formed by them is `square`.
∴ `1/2 |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| = square`
`1/2 |1(square) + 0(square) + x(square)| = square`
`square + square + square` = 0
`square + square` = 0
`square = square`
Hence, the relation between x and y is `square`.
