Area of triangle given 3 vectors pointing to vertices

[QUOTE="majinsock, post: 4530984, member: 459705"] So, the area of the triangle between two vectors (let's say [B]A[/B] and [B]B[/B]) is 0.5|[B]A[/B]x[B]b[/B]| right? I still don't see how I can use that to solve this. I can find the area of every triangle [I]but[/I] the one I need. EDIT: Alright, I was just being a dummy. I redrew my picture so that each of the vectors point away from each other (into three different quadrants) and I realized the if I added up all of the triangles (each of which being contained in the big triangle) I'd get the area of the big one. So the area is the sum of the smaller areas. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
