The possible area of the region that is shaded is given as 462cm.

How to solve for the area of the shaded region

The picture here shows us two rectangles.

The area of a rectangle is given as L * w

= length x width

We have to find the area of the first rectangle

21cm x 42cm

= 882 cm

Next we find the area of the rectangle inside

15cm x 28cm

= 420

To get the area of the shaded region

= 882 - 420

= 462cm
