To find the volume of a composite figure, we need to break it down into simpler shapes and then find the volume of each shape.

If we have a composite figure made up of a rectangular prism and a cylinder, we can find the volume of each shape separately and then add them together to get the total volume.

Let's say the dimensions of the rectangular prism are length = 5 inches, width = 3 inches, and height = 4 inches. The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

Volume = length x width x height

Volume = 5 x 3 x 4 = 60 cubic inches

Next, let's say the dimensions of the cylinder are radius = 2 inches and height = 6 inches. The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula:

Volume = π x radius^2 x height

Volume = π x 2^2 x 6 = 24π cubic inches

Now, we can add the volumes of the rectangular prism and the cylinder to find the total volume of the composite figure:

Total Volume = 60 + 24π ≈ 131.47 cubic inches

Therefore, the volume of the composite figure is approximately 131.47 cubic inches.
