The area of the composite figure can be found by calculating the area of the larger rectangle and the smaller rectangle separately, and then adding them together.
Area of the larger rectangle = length x width = 5 x 4 = 20 square units
Area of the smaller rectangle = length x width = 3 x 2 = 6 square units
Total area of the composite figure = 20 + 6 = 26 square units
Therefore, the area of the composite figure is 26 square units.
se the image to answer the 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.
