Question

The above diagram shows a rectangular home within a rectangular yard. What is the area of the yard?

Answer

The area of the yard is the area of the smaller rectangle subtracted from that of the larger rectangle. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and its height, so the larger rectangle has area

$250 \times 200 = 50,000$ square feet,

and the smaller rectangle has area

$60 \times 30 = 1,800$ square feet.

Subtract to get the area of the yard:

square feet.
