Join the point of intersections of two squares. Then, the shaded region will be divided into two congruent triangles, both of which are right-angled. This is the area of one triangle.
Then, we can calculate the area of two triangles, which is the area of the shaded region.
So, the area of the shaded region is .
The area of one square is .
We can find the unshaded area using the following method.
We can calculate the whole area in the following method.
We can calculate the unshaded region in the following method.
This gives the result that the area is the following.
Hence, the area of the unshaded region is .
Given,
Two identical squares with side-length 12 m intersect at M point and M is the midpoint of the corresponding side of both the squares.
We have to find :
- The area of the unshaded region.
Solution :
From the figure,
The sides of quadrilateral ABMD is :
AB = AD = 12 m
BM = MD = 6 m
Now at first we have to find the black shaded region.
By Brahmagupta's formula, we know that,
The area of a quadrilateral with sides a, b, c, d is given by
Where,
a, b, c and d are the four sides.
and
Now for the quadrilateral ABMD
Again, the area of both square are same
Now area of unshaded region :
here,
So,
So the area of unshaded region is 144 m²
