Question

Can someone help me please

Answer 1

The first step to solve this problem is to compute first for the area of the bigger rectangle:

A = LW

A = 12m (10m)

A = 120 m^2

Next step is to find the area of the smaller rectangle:

A = LW

A = 7m (2m)

A = 14 m^2

The last step is to deduct the area of the smaller rectangle to the area of the larger rectangle:

Area of larger rectangle – Area of the smaller rectangle = Area of the shaded region

120 m^2 – 14 m^2 = 106 m^2

Therefore, the area of the shaded region is 106 square meters.
