In summary, outdoor carpet is typically made of synthetic materials and is water-resistant but not completely waterproof. It can be cleaned with mild detergent or a pressure washer, and can be installed over concrete with a moisture barrier. While most outdoor carpets resist fading from UV rays, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause some fading over time.

Can someone please set up the equation I need for this geometry problem?

I think the formula is:

Area of shaded region minus area of region that is not shades. Yes?
