The area of a triangle is found using the formula Area = 1/2 x base x height.
Base = 8
Height = 18.
The area of 1 triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 18 = 72 square units.
There are a total of 4 sides, so total area = 72 x 4 = 288 units ^2
Which one question? there is multiple in there.
Answer:
(5x² +7x -26) units²
Step-by-step explanation:

Area of shaded region
= Area of larger rectangle -area of smaller rectangle
Area of larger rectangle
= (3x -4)(2x +2)
= 3x(2x) +3x(2) -4(2x) -4(2) <em>(</em><em>Expand</em><em>)</em>
= 6x² +6x -8x -8
= 6x² -2x -8
Area of smaller rectangle
= (x -6)(x -3)
= x² -3x -6x +18 <em>(</em><em>Expand</em><em>)</em>
= x² -9x +18
Area of shaded region
= 6x² -2x -8 -(x² -9x +18)
= 6x² -2x -8 -x² +9x -18
= 5x² +7x -26
