Answer:
[tex]Area = 476m^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment
Required
The uncovered area
First, calculate the area of the rectangle
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
From the attachment
[tex]Length = 25m[/tex] and [tex]Width = 20m[/tex]
So:
[tex]Area = 25m * 20m[/tex]
[tex]Area = 500m^2[/tex]
The area of the triangle is:
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * Base * Height[/tex]
From the attachment
[tex]Base = 8m[/tex]
[tex]Height = 6m[/tex]
So:
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * 8m * 6m[/tex]
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * 48m^2[/tex]
[tex]Area = 24m^2[/tex]
The uncovered area is:
[tex]Area = 500m^2 - 24m^2[/tex]
[tex]Area = 476m^2[/tex]
