Pls tell me how to solve this figure.
Answer is 60.
Answers
Answer:
ans is 60cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
see the unshaded region first it is a triangle
and area of a triangle = 1/2 × b × h
→ 1/2 × 14 × 12 (given)
→84 cm² –eq 1
so now we need to find the area of the whole figure and then subtract the area of unshaded region to find the area of shaded region .
it is given that ABCD is a trapezium.
so area of ABCD = 1/2 × sum of parallel sides × height
→ 1/2 × (10+14) × 12
→ 1/2 × 24 × 12
→ 144 cm² – eq2
Now area of unshaded region = eq2 - eq1
→( 144 - 84 ) cm²
→ 60cm²
