Answer:
280 ft squared
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of the nonshaded portion, we can find the area of the entire floor and then subtract the shaded area.
The total area is that of a rectangle: 30 * 15 = 450 ft squared.
Now, the shaded region is made up of a rectangle and a triangle.
- The rectangle has length 8 and width 10, so its area is 10 * 8 = 80 ft squared.
- The triangle has base 12 and height 15, so using the area of a triangle formula: (where b is the base and h is the height) = (12 * 15)/2 = 180/2 = 90 ft squared.
- The total shaded region is: 80 + 90 = 170 ft squared
Subtract 110 from 450: 450 - 170 = 280 ft squared.
Thus, the answer is 280 ft squared.
Hope this helps!

The illustration of the program is shown in the figure. The missing value is the length of the shadow, that is the base of the right triangle. Since the figure is a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorems
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
where c is the longest length or the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two shorter legs. Let's denote the length of the shadow as 'a'.
a = √(c^2 - b^2)
a = √(36^2 - 35^2)\
a = √71 = 8.43 m
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
where c is the longest length or the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two shorter legs. Let's denote the length of the shadow as 'a'.
a = √(c^2 - b^2)
a = √(36^2 - 35^2)\
a = √71 = 8.43 m
