Solution

Area of shaded triangle = Area of ΔABC – Area of rectangle PQRS

∴ Area of a triangle = `1/2` × Base × Height

∴ Area of ΔABC = `1/2 xx AC xx BD`

= `1/2 xx 40 xx 16  m^2`

= 20 × 16

= 320 m2

∵ Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

∴ Area of rectangle = 10 × 8 = 80 m2

Area of shaded region = 320 – 80 = 240 m2
