- #13-i
(ii)
Ans : Area of the shaded portion
= Area of the rectangle PQRS - Area of square ABCD
= 3.2 × 1.8 - (1.4)2 (∵ PQ = 3.2 and PS = 1.8)Side of square AB = 1.4 m
= 5.76 - 1.96= 3.8 m2
(ii) Area of the shaded portion = Area of square ABCD - Area of rectangle PQRS
= 6 × 6 - (3.6) (4.8)= 36 - 17.28= 18.72 m2
