Could this question actually be asked on the GMAT ? I don't recall this formula for line intersection in the TTP course and it seems overly cumbersome even if it were testable material - perhaps there is some other more intuitiveway?


You can find the points of intersection by simply solving equations simultaneously and can solve for the area of the triangle by subtracting out from the big triangle as done in the figure above. You do not need to use any other formulas or matrices.

As for whether this question can be asked on the GMAT, the quick answer is 'No' but there is a whole lot more to it. When you go through the curriculum of a test prep, there are lots of concepts we need to make you understand. There are lots of pieces of the puzzle that we need to ensure you put in place.
