These are the steps:
1. Find the area of the trapezium {Whole figure).
2. FInd the area of the rectangle (unshaded).
3. Area of the shaded = Area of trapezium - Area of the rectangle.
<u>Step 1: Find the area of the trapezium</u>:
Formula : Area of trapezium = 1/2 (a + b)h
Area = 1/2 ( 25 + 15) (12) = 240 yd²
<u>Step </u><u>2 :</u><u> Find the area of the rectangle</u>:
Formula : Area = Length x Width
Area = 12 x 3 = 36 yd²
<u>Step 3: Find the shaded region:</u>
240 - 36 = 204 yd²
Answer: 204 yd²
Answer:
Length: 19 feet
Width: 10 feet
Area: 190 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question about ratio.
Length: let 
be the actual length.
Width: let 
be the actual width.
Area: A = xy
4/6=66.67%
5/8=62.5%
Therfore 4/6 is bigger than 5/8
