Answer

See below

Work Step by Step

Given: $A=(x_A,y_A)\\B=(x_B,y_B)\\C=(x_C,y_C)$ are the verticles of the triangle. Since we have $(0,0);(14,3);(6,25)$, then $x_A=0,y_A=0\\x_B=14,y_B=3\\x_C=6,y_C=25$ Formula of the area of the triangle is given by: $\frac{1}{2}|x_A(y_B-y_C)+x_B(y_C-y_A)+x_C(y_A-y_B)\\ =\frac{1}{2}|0(3-25)+14(25-0)+6(0-3)\\ =\frac{1}{2}|350-18|\\ =\frac{1}{2}|332|\\ =166$
