problem
If is a square, is the midpoint of , is the midpoint of , and intersect at , and and intersect at , then the area of quadrilateral is
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
Solution
First, we find out the coordinates of the vertices of quadrilateral , then use the Shoelace Theorem to solve for the area. Denote as . Then . Since I is the intersection between lines and , and since the equations of those lines are and , . Using the same method, the equation of line is , so . Using the Shoelace Theorem, the area of is .
Final answer
C
