Solution

To solve the problem and find the area of the isosceles triangle ABC\triangle ABC, I will extract the coordinates from the graph.

The vertices of the triangle appear to be approximately:

  • A(0,0)A(0, 0)
  • B(4,0)B(4, 0)
  • C(0,3)C(0, 3)

Steps:

  1. Base ABAB: The length of ABAB is 4 units.
  2. Height ACAC: The length of ACAC is 3 units.

Area of ABC\triangle ABC:

Area=12×Base×Height=12×4×3=6 square units\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Base} \times \text{Height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 3 = 6 \text{ square units}

The area of ABC\triangle ABC is 66 square units.

Here are 5 related questions to consider:

  1. How do you determine the lengths of the sides of a triangle given the coordinates?
  2. What are the characteristics of an isosceles triangle?
  3. How can you calculate the area of a triangle using different methods (e.g., Heron's formula)?
  4. How would the area change if the triangle were not isosceles?
  5. Can you find the perimeter of this triangle?

Tip: When dealing with geometric figures on a coordinate plane, always identify and confirm the exact coordinates of the vertices before proceeding with calculations.
