Determine what fraction of the figure is shaded.
(a)

A four unit wide by four unit tall Geoboard is made up of 25points. A shape consisting of five connected line segments and ashaded region is on the Geoboard.
The first segment starts one unit to the right of and one unitabove the bottom left corner of the Geoboard. It goes right twounits.
The second line segment starts where the first line segmentended. It goes up and right and ends two units above the bottomright corner of the Geoboard.
The third line segment starts where the second line segmentended. It goes up and left and ends two units to the right of thetop left corner of the Geoboard.
The fourth line segment starts where the third line segmentended. It goes down and left and ends two units above the top leftcorner of the Geoboard.
The fifth line segment starts where the fourth line segmentended. It goes down and right and ends where the first segmentstarted.
The region is trapezoidal and fills the bottom portion of theshape from left to right. It is one unit tall, two units wide atthe base, and four units wide at the top.
(b)

A four unit wide by four unit tall Geoboard is made up of 25points. A shape consisting of five connected line segments and ashaded region is on the Geoboard.
The first segment starts at the bottom left corner of theGeoboard. It goes right four units.
The second line segment starts where the first line segmentended. It goes up two units.
The third line segment starts where the second line segmentended. It goes up and left and ends one unit to the left of the topright corner of the Geoboard.
The fourth line segment starts where the third line segmentended. It goes down and left and ends two units above the bottomleft corner of the Geoboard.
The fifth line segment starts where the fourth line segmentended. It goes down and ends where the first segment started.
The region is rectangular and fills the bottom portion of theshape from left to right. It is one unit tall, and four unitswide.
