Oh, shading a rectangle? That's my specialty! Well, if you have a rectangle that's 5 inches long and 2 inches wide, to find the area, you simply multiply those two measurements. So, 5 inches times 2 inches gives us... drumroll, please... an area of 10 square inches! Don't forget to shade it with your finest coloring skills!

To shade the rectangle in the shape, you need to identify the rectangle within the shape and then mark it with shading. The dimensions of the rectangle are given as 5 inches in length and 2 inches in width.

To calculate the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 5 inches and the width is 2 inches.

So, the area of the rectangle is calculated as follows:
Area = length * width
Area = 5 inches * 2 inches
Area = 10 square inches

Therefore, the area of the shaded rectangle is 10 square inches.
