Find the area of the shaded region

Answer:
120 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangle is 2 on each side. The area for right angle triangles is (side×side) ÷ 2
(2×2) ÷ 2
4 × 2
2 is the area for each triangle
2 × 4 triangles = 8
there are 8 cm^2 missing from the rectangle
so take the area of the rectangle (length × width)
16 × 8 = 128
Then subtract the combined triangles that are missing
128 - 8 = 120cm
the end :)
