A square with a side of 4 cm was cut from a rectangle with sides of 6 cm and 8 cm. Find S of the remainder.

Formula for the area of a rectangle:

S = a * b, where a and b are the sides of the rectangle.

Let’s calculate the area of the rectangle:

6 * 8 = 48 cm2 – the area of the rectangle.

Area of a square formula:

S = a ^ 2, where a is the side of the square.

Let’s calculate the area of the square:

4 ^ 2 = 4 * 4 = 16 cm2 – square area.

Let’s calculate the area of the remaining part:

48 – 16 = 32 cm2 – the area of the remaining part.

Answer: 32cm2.
