To find the area of the composite shape, we first need to find the area of each individual shape and then add them together.
Area of rectangle with length 5 and width 6:
Area = 5 * 6 = 30 square yards
Area of rectangle with length 9 and width 3:
Area = 9 * 3 = 27 square yards
Now, we can add the areas of the two rectangles together to find the total area of the composite shape:
Total area = 30 + 27 = 57 square yards
Therefore, the area of the composite shape is 57 square yards.
What is the area, in square yards of the composite shape?
The shape has 5, 6, 9, and 3 Area of a rectangle A=lw
