Question

Find the area of the shaded region.

Answer 1

512 ft^2

Explanation:

It should be straightforward.

It's a rectangle with sides 32+8=40 and 8+8 = 16

Use formula A=wl

A=40 x 16 = 640 ft^2

now we have to deduct the remaining two squares. 8 x 8 = 64 x 2 = 128

640-128 = 512 ft^2

Answer 2

512ft is the answer but put the little 2 next to it
