Transcribed Image Text:**Title: Determining the Centroid of a Shaded Area**
**Objective:**
Determine the x- and y-coordinates of the centroid of the shaded area.
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram shows a shaded geometric shape consisting of a rectangle with a right triangle on top. The dimensions of the shape are given in millimeters:
- The base of the shape runs along the x-axis and is a total of 265 mm long (70 mm + 195 mm).
- The left side of the shape is 210 mm high (70 mm for the rectangle and 140 mm for the triangle's height).
- The width of the triangle's base is 195 mm.
**Dimensions:**
- The shorter rectangle on the left has a height of 70 mm and a width of 70 mm.
- A larger rectangle area of 195 mm width is included, constituting the base for the right triangle.
**Solution:**
**Answers:**
The coordinates of the centroid are:
- \((\overline{X}, \overline{Y}) = (197.5, 93.333)\) mm
These coordinates represent the center of mass or balance point of the shaded area.
