To answer the question, as it is posed,  B O T H  the dimensions of the rectangle AEFD should be given.


But they are not. Only the length EF = 26 m is given; the length of EA is  not given  in the plot.


    So, I only can say that the shaded area EFHG is   =   of the area of the rectangle AEFD.
