Marks: +1, -0

The area of the triangle formed by the straight line 3x + 2y = 6 and the co-ordinate axes is

Solution:

From linear equation, we find two points on x-axis and y-axis.
3x + 2y = 6
x = 0
x = 2
y = 3
y = 0

In ΔAOB,
Area of the triangle =

1/2

× base height
=

1/2

× 2 × 3 = 3 square units
