If area of the triangle with vertices \(A(2, k), B(1,1), C(10,8)\) is \(\frac{47}{2}\) sq. units, then one of the values of \(k\) is:

  1. A \(\frac{29}{9}\)
  2. B 2
  3. C -7
  4. D 7
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 7

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)| \) \( \frac{47}{2} = \frac{1}{2} |2(1 - 8) + 1(8 - k) + 10(k - 1)| \) \( 47 = |2(-7) + 8 - k + 10k - 10| \) \( 47 = |-14 + 9k - 2| \) \( 47 = |9k - 16| \)…
