Question

what is the area of the shaded region? 9 m 10 m square meters submit

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for the area of a triangle

The formula for the area of a triangle is \(A=\frac{1}{2}\times base\times height\).

Step2: Identify the base and height

From the figure, the base \(b = 10\space m\) and the height \(h=9\space m\).

Step3: Substitute values into the formula

Substitute \(b = 10\) and \(h = 9\) into \(A=\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h\). So \(A=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times9\).
First, calculate \(10\times9 = 90\). Then \(\frac{1}{2}\times90=45\).

Answer:

45
