Area of the Shaded Region | Percentage Math Problem | JusticeTheTutor #maths #math #shorts

Am I the only one who find area of triangle like this— w/2 x h or h/2 x w, which ever makes it easier.

You could also see that the rectangle in which the triangle is in covers 2/3 of the entire shape and since the triangle is only half the rectangle you could just divide 2/3 by 2 and get 1/3

1/3

cuz once you get rid of 12, you have 24, and it is perfectly corner-to-corner of that 4-by-12 region.

I love just seeing if I remember the knowledge, it’s actually really fun (this ain’t a flex, I only wanna be an engineer, and I believe in myself)

Which square? There are so many of them!
