Asked by Robert

The vertical backboard located 4ft from the baseline supports the rim of the basketball net. The backboard measures 6ft wide by 4ft high. The shooter's square is a white box above the rim of the basket. It must measure 1 1/2 ft high and 2ft wide. What is the area of the portion of the backboard "excluding" the shooter's square?
