  1. A \(\frac{15}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  2. B 15
  3. C 30
  4. D \(15 \sqrt{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(15 \sqrt{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Area \( = |\vec{a} \times \vec{b}| \) \(\vec{a} \times \vec{b} = \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ 1 & -1 & 3 \\ 2 & -7 & 1 \end{vmatrix} = \hat{i}(-1+21) - \hat{j}(1-6) + \hat{k}(-7+2) = 20\hat{i} + 5\hat{j} - 5\hat{k}\) Area…
