Question

Q4. The diagram shows a triangle inside a rectangle.

Answer 1

The prove to show that the area of the shaded portion is 18x  - 30 is as follows: 3x² + 13x - 30 - 3x² + 5x = 18x  - 30

How to find the area of the shaded region?

The area of the shaded region can be represented as follows:

area of the shaded region = area of rectangle - area of triangle

Therefore,

area of the rectangle = (x + 6)(3x - 5)

area of the rectangle = 3x² - 5x + 18x - 30

area of the rectangle = 3x² + 13x - 30

area of triangle = 1 / 2 × 2x × 3x - 5

area of triangle = 3x² - 5x

Therefore,

area of the shaded portion =  3x² + 13x - 30 - 3x² + 5x

area of the shaded portion = 18x  - 30
