Answer: ¹/₂( x² - 10y² + 10xy - xy )
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram area of the triangle = ¹/₂ ˣ base ˣ height
where the base = x + 10y and the height = x - y
Therefore putting these into the formula above
Area = ¹/₂ [( x + 10y )( x -y )]
= ¹/₂( x² - xy + 10xy - 10y²)units²
= ¹/₂( x² - 10y² + 10xy - xy )
