The figure below shows a shaded region and a nonshaded region. Angles in the figure that appear to be right angles are right angles.
What is the area, in square feet, of the shaded region? What is the area, in square feet, of the nonshaded region?

@CausticSyndicalist please help....
I would, probably divide the shaded area into a rectangle and a trapezoid
we can see the shaded region as composed by the subsequent geometrical shapes: |dw:1435426492812:dw|
Then, you need to find the area of the trapezoid and the rectangle and add them both up. The answer is area for the shaded region.
Area of a trapezoid: A=[(a+b)/2]h
Area of a Rectangle: L*B
Fill in the values.
Try typing: "Area of Trapezoid" on google. There you will find a calculator, you can fill the values in there!
what arwe the values
like base base ansd hieght
1 for a, 4 for b, 10 for h.
The answer is 25 ft for the area of the trapezoid. Then, for the area of a rectangle: 8*2=16. Add: 25+16=Your Answer for no.1
so 41
Is that in the options?
Yes it is and okay do u know number 2 by any chance
I think we need to divide it into 1 trapezoid and 3 rectangles
Yeah i do too i just get confused on the math part
So do it, find the area for all figures, then add the area up and there is your answer for no.2!
