Answer:

A = 59 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of the shaded region is calculated as

A = area of outer triangle - area of inner triangle

  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the height )

  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 13 × 14 - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 8 × 8
