Distance on one side using ( 1, 5) and (4,3) =
sqrt [ ( 1 - 4)^2 + (3 - 5)^2 ] = sqrt [ 9 + 4] = sqrt [13] = A
Distance of the other side using ( 1, 5) and ( -3, -1) =
sqrt [ ( -3 - 1)^2 + (-1 - 5)^2 ] = sqrt [ 16 + 36 ] = sqrt [52] = 2sqrt [ 13 ] = B
Area = A * B = sqrt [13] * 2 sqrt [13 ] = 2 * 13 = 26 units^2
