Question 7
Rectangle ABCD is 8 cm long and 6 cm wide. Find the total area of the two shaded rectangles, in square centimeters, using the subdivision in the diagram.
For this exercise assume M,P,Q,N are the side midpoints, O is the center, and the upper-left quarter is split into four equal rectangles. These equalities are suggested by the drawing but not marked in the source.
