Question

find the area of the shaded triangle if the side of each small square is 1cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

We can divide the shaded part in AABC and ABCD,

AB = 3 cm, BC = 4 cm

Height of ABCD = 2 cm

Area of AABC = (1/2) > AB > BC

⇒ (1/2) × 3 × 4

⇒ 6 cm²

Area of ABCD = BC x Height of ABCD

⇒ (1/2) x 4 x 2

⇒4 cm²

Area of the shaded part = Area of AABC + Area of ABCD

⇒ 6+4

⇒ 10 cm²
