We can find the area of the triangle with given coordinates by the following method:

\triangle = \begin{vmatrix} 2 &7 &1 \\ 1 & 1& 1\\ 10& 8 &1 \end{vmatrix}

=\frac{1}{2} \begin{vmatrix} 2 &7 &1 \\ 1 & 1& 1\\ 10& 8 &1 \end{vmatrix} = \frac{1}{2}\left [ 2(1-8)-7(1-10)+1(8-10) \right ]

= \frac{1}{2}\left [ 2(-7)-7(-9)+1(-2) \right ] = \frac{1}{2}\left [ -14+63-2 \right ] = \frac{47}{2}\ square\ units.
