उत्तर
The coordinates of A are (1, 3).
∴ Distance of A from the x-axis, AD = y-coordinate of A = 3 units
The number of units between B and C on the x-axis are 5.
∴ BC = 5 units
Now,
Area of ∆ABC = \[\frac{1}{2} \times BC \times AD = \frac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 3 = \frac{15}{2} = 7 . 5\] square units
Thus, the area of ∆ABC is 7.5 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`.
Distance of the point (6, 5) from the y-axis is ______.
