a right triangle is removed from a rectangle to create the shaded region shown below. find the area of the shaded region. be sure to include the correct unit in your answer. ​

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Objective: Find missing dimensions of the right triangle using the then subtract that area of the triangle from the rectangle's area.

Using the definition of a rectangle, the left vertical side measure is 7 and right vertical side is 6. So the missing legs of the triangle is 4 and 3.

Apply triangle formula, base x height divided by 2.

Area of rectangle is length x width so the area is

Subtract 6 from 42.

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240
