Question

i cant find the area of the shaded part if this compund shape. *working also*.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the shaded part of the compound shape is 56 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of rectangle ABCD are,

AB = CD = 5cm

AC = BD = 4cm

Dimensions of rectangle CEGF are,

CE = GF = 9cm

CG = EF = 4cm

Area of rectangle ABCD = 5 x 4

= 20 cm²

Area of rectangle CEGF = 9 x 4

= 36 cm²

Area of the shaded part of the compound shape = Area of rectangle ABCD + Area of rectangle CEGF

= 20 + 36

= 56 cm²

Thus the area of the shaded part of the compound shape is 56 cm² .
