What is the area, in square centimeters, of the shaded part of the rectangle below?

Answer:
probably it
Step-by-step explanation:
First, get the area of the rectangle then subtract the triangle, the result will be the shaded area:
area rec = 18 * 11
area rec = 198 cm²
small side of tri = 11 - 5
small side of tri = 6 cm
area tri = (height * width) / 2
area tri = (6 * 18) / 2
area tri = 108 / 2
area tri = 54 cm²
area shaded = 198 - 54
area shaded = 144 cm²
