This is hard to explain but there is a picture and it shows a square but half of the square is a little longer and it shows the base is 2 and 3 and then the right side of the square is 4 and the left is 5, it says what is the area of the composition figure in square units??

1 answer

To find the area of the figure, we need to first break it down into simpler shapes. From the given information, we can see that the figure consists of a rectangle and a triangle.

The rectangle has a length of 2+3=5 units and a width of 4 units. Therefore, its area is 5 x 4 = 20 square units.

The triangle has a base of 2 units and a height of 5-3=2 units. Therefore, its area is (1/2) x 2 x 2 = 2 square units.

To find the area of the entire figure, we add the area of the rectangle and the triangle. Thus, the area of the composition figure is 20 + 2 = 22 square units.
