4 * 3 = 12 ft[tex]^2[/tex]
Answer:
24 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = area of triangle - area of rectangle
[tex]Area \ of \ triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height =\frac{1}{2} \times(4 +5) \times (5+3) = 9 \times 4 = 36 \ ft^2\\\\Area \ of \ rectangle = Length \times Breadth = 3 \times 4 = 12 \ ft^2\\\\\\Area \ of \ the\ shaded \ region = 36 - 12 = 24 \ ft^2[/tex]
