A Rectangular region is removed from another Rectangular region to create the shaded region showed below. Find the area of the shaded region.

Answer: [tex]40\ cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the area of a rectangle is given by :-
[tex]\text{Area}=\text{Length}\times\text{Width}[/tex]
The dimension of outer rectangle 15 cm by 7 cm
Then , Area of outer rectangle = [tex]15\times7=105\ cm^2[/tex]
The dimension of inner rectangle 13 cm by 5 cm
Then , Area of inner rectangle = [tex]13\times5=65\ cm^2[/tex]
Now, the area of the shaded region will be :-
[tex]105\ cm^2-65\ cm^2=40\ cm^2[/tex]
Hence, the area of the shaded region = [tex]40\ cm^2[/tex]
