How do I find the are of a convex quadrialater with vertices (-1,0),(0,1),(2,0) and (0-3)?

 

I used the distance formula and found the side lengths to be \(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{5}, \sqrt{13}, and \sqrt{10}.\)

 

Not sure how to proceed beyond this.

Looks like the solution, but I was hoping for an explanation on what the numbers in "Area" formula are refering to?

[ABD] = 1/2(BD * AO) = 1.5

 

[BCD] = 1/2(BD * CO) = 4.5

 

[ABCD] = 1.5 + 4.5 = 6

Got it thanks The figure in the link https://web2.0calc.com/questions/thanks-for-any-help_4 helped.

 

Area of Triangle1 + Area of Triangle2

\(1/2(b1.h1) + 1/2(b2.h2) \)

\(1/2(3.1) + 1/2(3.3) = 3/2 +9/2 =12/2 =6\)
