In the diagram, the four points have coordinates $A(0,1)$, $B(1,3)$, $C(5,2)$, and $D(4.5,0)$.  What is the area of quadrilateral $ABCD$?

Here is what I would do: area of red rectangle =   5 x 3 = 15  units^2 

   then subtract each of the right triangles    area = 1/2 b * h 

        15 - 1 - 2 - 1/2  - 2.25  =   9.25 units^2
