Answer:

112cm²

Explanation:

First, let us find the area of the rectangle.

Area = length × width

Area = 16 cm × 9 cm

Area = 144 cm²

Now, let us find the area of the trapezium.

Area = 1/2 ( Sum of the parallel sides ) × height

Area = 1/2 × ( 11 + 5 ) × 4

Area = 1/2 × 16 × 4

Area = 32 cm²

Area of the shaded region.

To find the area of the shaded region, subtract the area of the rectangle from the area of the trapezium.

Area = 144cm² - 32cm²

Area = 112cm²

First find the area of the rectangle

A = l*w = 9*16 = 144

The unshaded area is a trapezoid

A = 1/2 ( b1+b2) *h = 1/2 ( 5+11) * 4 = 1/2 (16) * 4 =32

The area of the shaded region is

rectangle - trapezoid

144-32

112cm^2
