The figure above shows a square inscribed in a rectangle. What is the area of the orange colored part of the figure? (Include only numbers, not words or labels, in your answer.)

31 units ²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length × width

Length = 8 units

Width = 5 units

Area of a rectangle = length × width

= 8 units × 5 units

= 40 units ²

Area of of the blue square = length ²

Length = 3 units

Area of of the blue square = length ²

= (3 units) ²

= 9 units ²

Area of the orange colored part of the figure = Area of a rectangle - Area of of the blue square

= 40 units ² - 9 units ²

= 31 units ²

Area of the orange colored part of the figure = 31 units ²
