Hi there!

<u>Answer:</u>

The area of the shaded region is 28 in²


<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

You will have to do 3 different steps in order to find the area of the shaded region.

First, you will need to find the total area of the rectangle using the values you have and the area formula for a rectangle, which is : A = Length × Width

"A" is the area, which is what we are looking for

The "Length" is equal here to 8 inches

The "Width" is equal here to 5 inches


A = <u>8 × 5</u>

A = 40 in²


Now that you have the area of the rectanlge, your second step is to find the area of the triangle using the values you have and the area formula for a triangle, which is : A = (Base × Height) ÷ 2

"A" is the area, which is what we are looking for

The "Base" is equal here to 8 inches

The "Height" is equal here to 3 inches


A = <u>(8 × 3)</u> ÷ 2

A = <u>24 ÷ 2</u>

A = 12 in²


Now that you have both the area of the rectangle and the area of the triangle, all you have to do for your third and final step is subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle so that you are left with the area of the shaded region :

Area shaded region = <u>40 in² - 12 in²</u>

Area shaded region = 28 in²


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Please answer quick and fast its due today.I only have two questions ​
madreJ [45]
#13 is 3000 because since each T-shirt is $650 and they buy 4 you multiply and get $2600 and since she received 400 dollar change then you add that value to the total cost and get 3000 that means she paid 3000

#14 is a millennium
1 year is 365 days
1 decade is 10 years
1 century is 100 years
1 millennium is 1000 years
So it has to be 1 millennium since 1000 years is the most out of the others

Tm=gl and md=ls What additional information is necessary to show that by SSS
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Since the problem is to prove that the two triangles are congruent by applying SSS (side -side -side) congruence theorem, the missing or the additional information that can be shown in the solution is the third side of both triangles must be also equal and congruent. Since in SSS theorem, all sides of a given triangle must be congruent to the opposite three sides of the second triangle.
