- Find out the area of the region with slanting lines in the figure. All three rectangles have the same dimensions.
Area of the region with slanting lines is given by.
- By expanding the expressions, verify that all three expressions are equivalent. If \(p = 8\) and \(q = 1\), find the area of the shaded region.
If \(p = 8\) and \(q = 1\), the the area of the shaded region \(=\) sq.units.
