what’s the area of the shaded region?? ANSWER ASAP FOR BRAINLIEST

Area of the Rectangle = [tex]bh = 8(17)=136[/tex]
Area of a Triangle = [tex]\frac{bh}{2}=\frac{8(17)}{2}=\frac{136}{2}=68[/tex]
Take both areas and subtract them:
[tex]136-68=68[/tex]
This means shaded area = 68 in^2
Hope this helps!
It's 68". Because a triangle in a rectangle that spans all sides is half the area of the rectangle.
