Answer:
Find the area of the whole shape, then find the area of the shaded area (which is 2 triangles *).
after that, just minus the area of the shaded areas from the area of the whole shape...
Total Area = Lenght x Width... (16 x 12)
Area of triangle 1 = 1/2 x Base x Height.... (1/2 x 12 x 8)
Area of triangle 2 = 1/2 x Base x Height.... (1/2 x 12 x 8)
Area of Shaded Region = A of T1 + A of T2
Area of Non-Shaded Region = Total Area - Area of of Shaded Areas
