Given points in a plane are P(2, 2) and Q(4, 2).
By fixing the point P, by rotating the line Q in an anti-clockwise direction at an angle  we get the following figure,
Question Image.
Let Q' be the new coordinates of Point Q then,
Q'(2,0) .
From the graph, it is clear that we have to find out the area of a triangle.
For this,
Since, Q'PQ=90°   {From graph}.
QPQ' is a right-angled triangle.
Also,
PQ'=PQ=2 units    {From graph}.
We know that,
Area of Triangle=12×Base×Height.
Then,
arQPQ'=12×PQ'×PQ 

arQPQ'=12×2×2 

ar(QPQ')=2 units2 

Therefore, area of the figure is 2 units2.
