Find the area of the shaded polygons:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

You could divide this into several smaller shapes, such as triangles and trapezoids.  But with this one, it might be simpler to count the full squares, half squares, and partial squares.

Full square - 4

Half squares - 3 ( for an area of 1.5)

Two squares divided in half - 2

Three squares divided in half - 1 (for an area of 1.5)

4+1.5+2+1.5=9

9

Step-by-step explanation:

A simpler way of doing this is using pick's theorem.

Pick's theorem is:

i + b/2 - 1 which translates to: interior points + boundary points/2 - 1

Interior points: There is 5 interior points

Boundary points: There is 10 boundary points

 ---> 5 + 10/2 - 1

               = 9

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
