To find the area of the shaded region, we need to subtract the area of the triangle (6 ft x 5 ft / 2 = 15 ft^2) from the area of the rectangle (6 ft x 6 ft = 36 ft^2).
Therefore, the area of the shaded region is 36 ft^2 - 15 ft^2 = 21 ft^2.
So the closest answer is 20.75 ft^2.
What is the area of the shaded region?
