First, express area as a function of t. Suppose there is a triangle whose vertices are A (0,0), B (t,0) and C (0, t). Here, we can use the determinant formula for the area of a triangle. Area = 12 x1 (y2
- y3) + x2 (y3-y1) + x3 (y1-y2) Let us substitute the coordinates in the above equation: Area = 12 0 (0- t) + t (t-0) + 0 (0-0) = 12 t*t

= 12 t2

So, the area as a function of t is:

Area (t) = 12 t2 Now, let us calculate area when t = 4 and substitute t

Now |A| = α2–β2 = 24

α2 = 16 + β2

α2– β2 = 16

(α–β) (α+β) = 16

->α + β = 8 and

α – β = 2

->α = 5 and β = 3
