You can put this solution on YOUR website! Too much missing here. Three points? For a triangle? Or is another point missing, maybe for a rectangle? Where is other length or scaling information?
Answer by timofer(106) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you try to graph those given points and, assuming there is one missing point as part of a parallelogram, then accounting for the slopes of (-5,-3) & (1,-5), and (4,4) & (1,-5), then the missing point would be (-1,-6).
Still too much seems omitted from your problem description.
Taking another look at just what is described and is asked, maybe these would help:

The area is 30 units.
