Answer:
92.5in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of square = s²
where s = 10in
Area of Square = (10in)²
Area of Square = 100in²
Area of Triangle = ½(ab)
where:
a = 5in
b = 3in
Area of Triangle = ½(5)(3)
Area of Triangle = 7.5in²
To get the area of the shaded part:
Area shaded = Area of Square - Area of Triangle
Area shaded = 100in² - 7.5in²
Area shaded = 92.5in²
