Area of a Convex Polygon

The coordinates (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), . . . , (xn, yn) of a convex polygon are arranged in the "determinant" below. The coordinates must be taken in counterclockwise order around the polygon, beginning and ending at the same point. Example: Find the area of this polygon:
