Question

An illustration shows a rectangle that extends to a smaller rectangle at the bottom left. The length of the bottom rectangle is much lesser on the right. The dimensions are as follows: The larger rectangle shows the right side as 4, truncated bottom length as 3, and left side end to end as 5 including the extended rectangle. The smaller rectangle shows the bottom length as 2. There are 5 right angled symbols to show the perpendicular lines of the two rectangles.
What is the area of the composite figure in square units?(1 point)
square units

Answer 1

To find the area of the composite figure, we can break it down into two rectangles.

1. Larger Rectangle:

   • Length = 4 units (right side)
   • Height = 5 units (left side)
   • Area of the larger rectangle = Length × Height = 4 × 5 = 20 square units.

2. Smaller Rectangle:

   • Length = 2 units (bottom length)
   • Height = 3 units (height as indicated, with the total height being 5)
   • Area of the smaller rectangle = Length × Height = 2 × 3 = 6 square units.

Now, we need to combine the areas of the two rectangles to find the total area of the composite figure:

• Total Area = Area of larger rectangle + Area of smaller rectangle
• Total Area = 20 + 6 = 26 square units.

Therefore, the area of the composite figure is 26 square units.
