6 Show that the lines with equations
Finally, we simplify the expression to get the area of the triangle:
Step 1 :First, we write the parametric equations of the lines as:
Step 2 :Next, we find the intersection points of the lines by setting the corresponding components equal. For
Step 3 :Similarly, for
Step 4 :Finally, for
Step 5 :Now that we have the vertices of the triangle, we can find the side lengths. We have
Step 6 :Using Heron's formula, we first find the semi-perimeter:
Step 7 :Then, we find the area of the triangle:
Step 8 :Calculating the area, we get
Step 9 :Finally, we simplify the expression to get the area of the triangle:
