उत्तर

Here, P(x1, y1) ≡ P(k, 0), Q(x2, y2) ≡ Q(4, 0), R(x3, y3) ≡ R(0, 2)

A(ΔPQR)) = 4 sq. units

Area of a triangle = `1/2|(x_1, y_1, 1),(x_2, y_2, 1),(x_3, y_3, 1)|`

∴ ± 4 = `1/2|("k", 0, 1),(4, 0, 1),(0, 2, 1)|`

∴ ± 4 = `1/2["k"(0 - 2) - 0 + 1(8 - 0)]`

∴ ± 8 = –2k + 8

∴ 8 = –2k + 8 or –8 = –2k + 8

∴ –2k = 0 or  2k = 16

∴ k = 0  or k = 8
