Answer: Polygon Q's area is 1/4 of Polygon P's area
======================================================
Explanation:
Imagine we had a square with side length 8. The area of this square is 8*8 = 64.
Now let's reduce each side of the square by the scale factor 1/2. So each new side is 8*(1/2) = 4. The area of this smaller square is 4*4 = 16.
Comparing the new area (16) to the old one (64), we see that the new area is 16/64 = 1/4 of the old area. 
In other words,
new smaller area = (1/4)*(old larger area)
So this is one example to see why (1/2)*(1/2) = 1/4 is the area scale factor based on the linear scale factor of 1/2. In short, (1/2)^2 = 1/4. Whatever the original scale factor is, square it and you'll get the area scale factor.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: 6928
----------------------------------------------------------
Explanation: 
We have two areas we need to find: The area of the trapezoid and the area of the rectangle. Let's call these areas A1 and A2.
Area of Trapezoid = (height)*(base1+base2)/2
A1 = h*(b1+b2)/2
A1 = 80*(150+100)/2
A1 = 80*250/2
A1 = 20000
A1 = 10000
Area of Rectangle = (length)*(width)
A2 = L*W
A2 = 48*64
A2 = 3072
Subtract the two areas (A1-A2) to get the difference D
D = A1 - A2
D = 10000 - 3072
D = 6928
This difference D is exactly equal to the shaded area. 
        
             
        
        
        
The answer would be C, 150 televisions.
