To solve the problem regarding the area of a composite figure, we would typically need a visual representation of the figure and some measurements or dimensions to work with. Since no specific dimensions or shapes are provided here, I cannot calculate the area directly.

However, I can guide you on how to find the area of composite figures generally:

  1. Break down the composite figure: Divide the figure into simpler shapes (rectangles, triangles, circles, etc.).

  2. Calculate the area of each simple shape: Use the appropriate formulas for the shapes:

    • Rectangle: Area = length × width
    • Triangle: Area = (base × height) / 2
    • Circle: Area = π × radius²
  3. Sum the areas: Add the areas of the individual shapes to get the total area of the composite figure.

  4. Choose the correct answer: Once you have the total area, you can select the correct option from the given choices (24, 36, 48, or 30 square units).

If you have a specific figure or dimensions, please provide them, and I can help calculate the area more precisely.
