Find the area of the shaded triangle

Answer:
4 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of shaded triangle = Area of total triangle - area of unshaded triangle.
Area of total triangle = [tex]\frac{bh}{2}[/tex] = 4 * 4 / 2 = 8
Area of unshaded triangle = [tex]\frac{4*2}{2}[/tex] = 4
8 -4 = 4 ft^2
Hope this helps.
