Question

pqrs is a rectangle find the area in centimetres square of the shaded portion

Answer 1

first find the area of rectangle.
we get 98 $cm^{2}$.
then find the area of triangle.
we know that the base of the triangle PT is 8cm.
then the height is nothing but the breadth of the rectangle i.e, 7cm.
find the area of triangle.
we get 28 $cm^{2}$.
then subtract the area of triangle from area of rectangle.
we get 98$cm^{2}$-28$cm^{2}$=70 $cm^{2}$
therefore, the area of shaded region is 70 $cm^{2}$.

Answer 2

Answer:

70 cm^2 is the correct answer
