  1. (i) Here, AB = 18 cm, BC = 10 cm, AF = 6 cm, AE = 10 cm and BE = 8 cm
    Area of shaded portion
    = Area of rectangle ABCD – (Area of ∆FAE + area of ∆EBC)
    = (AB x BC) – (1/2 x AE x AF + 1/2 x BE x BC)
    = (18 x 10) – (1/2 x 10 x 6 + 1/2 x 8 x 10)
    = 180 – (30 + 40)
    = 180 – 70
    = 110 cm²

    (ii) Here, SR = SU + UR = 10 + 10 = 20 cm, QR = 20 cm
    PQ = SR = 20 cm, PT = PS – TS = 20 – 10 cm
    TS = 10 cm, SU = 10 cm, QR = 20 cm and UR = 10 cm
    Area of shaded region
    = Area of square PQRS – Area of ∆QPT – Area of ∆TSU – Area of ∆UQR
    = (SR x QR) – 1/2 x PQ x PT – 1/2 x ST x SU – 1/2
    = 20 x 20 – 1/2 x 20 x 10 – 1/2 x 10 x 10 – 1/2 x 20 x 10
    = 400 – 100 – 50 – 100
    = 150 cm²
