The shaded region is a triangle. Triangle area can be determined with formula
a = 1/2 × b × h
From the question, we know that the triangle consists of
base = 10 - 6 = 4 m
and the height is the dimension which is perpendicular to the base,
height = 6 m
Find the triangle area
a = 1/2 × b × h
a = 1/2 × 4 × 6
a = 1/2 × 24
a = 12
The area of the shaded region is 12 m²
