Solve the equations graphically and find the vertices and the area of the triangle formed by these lines and the x-axis: x-y+1=0, 3x+2y-12=0

This question is from linear equations in two variables in which we have been asked to solve the equations graphically and also asked to find the vertices and the area of the triangle formed by these lines and the x-axis if the given equations are x-y+1=0, 3x+2y-12=0

  1. xy+1=0….(1)
    3x+2y12=0……(2)
    Isolate x from equation (1) and find the value of x and y.
    xy+1=0
    or x=y1

    x    y
    1    0
    0   1
    1   2

    Similarly, isolate x from equation (2) and find the values of x and y.
    3x+2y12=0
    or x=(122y)/3

    x y
    4 0
    2 3
    0 6

    Graph:
    Both the lines intersect each other at point E(2,3) and x axis at A(1,0) and D(4,0)
    To find the area of triangle BAD:
    Area of EAD=1/2(base×altitude)
    =1/2×5×3
    =7.5 sq.units.
