Bunuel
Bunuel , there is no shading on my image. If that is accurate, maybe you mean: "What is the sum of the areas of the regions bounded by the outline?"
I'll assume that. The outlined figure looks like an animal.
Area of triangle (animal's head): count 4 lengths of 1 across, 4 lengths down.
(4*4)/2 = 8
Area of tall rectangle minus area of small rectangle (body and legs):
--Tall rectangle: 4 lengths across by 8 down. (4*8) = 32
--Short rectangle: 2 across by 4 down. (2*4) = 8
--Total area is 32 - 8 = 24
Add "head" and "body and legs":
8 + 24 = 32
