Hello! So the blocks are lined up in rows of 8. When you count the number of rows, there are 10 of them. 3 rows of 8 blocks are shaded out of 10 of them. That's 24 blocks shaded out of 80, because 8 * 10 is 80, and 3 * 8 is 24. Let's divide. 24/80 is 0.3.Let's multiply that by 100 to get it in percent form. 0.3 * 100 is 30. There. 30% of blocks are shaded in the picture.

Answer is 54^2.

since there are triangles in this one, it is easier to do this. all you have to do is make boxes in and since there are angles, outside the lines. like this picture.

the orange is 1
red and dotted is 2
blue is 3
purple is 4(a regular box which should be easy to count.

all you have to do is add up all the boxes within the boundaries.
boundary 1: 12
boundary 2: 18
boundary 3: 6
boundary 4: 36

now when the boundary has a triangle in it (1, 2, & 3) divide the number you got in half or 2.
boundary 1: 6
boundary 2: 9
boundary 3: 3

the ractangle box doesn't not get divided.
boundary 1: 6
boundary 2: 9
boundary 3: 3
boundary 4: 36

add all the numbers you got now for each boundary and that would be your area squared.

6+9+3+36=54^2

so your final answer is 54^2.

i hope this helps you.
