Problem Statement

In the image below, we have a geometric figure enclosed within a square grid. The right side of the grid shows a given length of 3 cm for one of the sections. The task is to determine the area of the red region.

Steps to Solve

1. Understand the Grid Structure
   • The figure is enclosed within a 2×2 square grid.
   • The entire square’s side length can be determined using the given 3 cm section.
2. Break Down the Problem
   • The red region is a quadrilateral formed by cutting parts of the squares.
   • Using coordinate geometry or triangle area formulas can help in solving it efficiently.
3. Apply the Area Formula
   • Using the formulas, we can compute the exact red area step by step.
