To find the area of a composite figure, you first need to identify the individual shapes that make up the composite figure.
Using the given side lengths of the figure (5, 4, 3, and 2), we can determine that the figure is made up of a rectangle with sides of 5 and 4 units, and a triangle with base of 3 units and a height of 2 units.
The area of the rectangle is found by multiplying its length and width: 5 x 4 = 20 square units.
The area of the triangle is found by using the formula: Area = 1/2 x base x height. Plugging in the values, we get: 1/2 x 3 x 2 = 3 square units.
Now, to find the total area of the composite figure, we simply add the areas of the rectangle and triangle together: 20 + 3 = 23 square units.
Therefore, the area of the composite figure is 23 square units.
What is the area of the composite figure in square units? the sides of the figure are 5,4,3,and 2.

wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's try to find the correct area of the composite figure.
First, calculate the area of the triangle. The triangle has a base of 3 units and a height of 2 units. Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
Area of triangle = 1/2 x 3 x 2
Area of triangle = 3 square units
Next, calculate the area of the rectangle. The rectangle has sides of 5 and 4 units. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is:
Area of rectangle = length x width
Area of rectangle = 5 x 4
Area of rectangle = 20 square units
Now, add the areas of the triangle and rectangle together to find the total area of the composite figure:
Total area = Area of triangle + Area of rectangle
Total area = 3 + 20
Total area = 23 square units
Therefore, the correct area of the composite figure is 23 square units.
First, calculate the area of the triangle. The triangle has a base of 3 units and a height of 2 units. Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
Area of triangle = 1/2 x 3 x 2
Area of triangle = 3 square units
Next, calculate the area of the rectangle. The rectangle has sides of 5 and 4 units. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is:
Area of rectangle = length x width
Area of rectangle = 5 x 4
Area of rectangle = 20 square units
Now, add the areas of the triangle and rectangle together to find the total area of the composite figure:
Total area = Area of triangle + Area of rectangle
Total area = 3 + 20
Total area = 23 square units
Therefore, the correct area of the composite figure is 23 square units.
the total area isnt correct
Let's try to find the correct total area of the composite figure given the side lengths of 5, 4, 3, and 2 units.
The figure can be divided into a triangle with sides of 3 units and 2 units, and a trapezoid with bases of 5 units and 4 units, and a height of 2 units.
First, let's calculate the area of the triangle:
Area of triangle = (1/2) x base x height
Area of triangle = (1/2) x 3 x 2
Area of triangle = 3 square units
Next, calculate the area of the trapezoid:
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x (base1 + base2) x height
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x (5 + 4) x 2
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x 9 x 2
Area of trapezoid = 9 square units
Finally, add the areas of the triangle and trapezoid to find the total area of the composite figure:
Total area = Area of triangle + Area of trapezoid
Total area = 3 + 9
Total area = 12 square units
Therefore, the correct total area of the composite figure is 12 square units.
The figure can be divided into a triangle with sides of 3 units and 2 units, and a trapezoid with bases of 5 units and 4 units, and a height of 2 units.
First, let's calculate the area of the triangle:
Area of triangle = (1/2) x base x height
Area of triangle = (1/2) x 3 x 2
Area of triangle = 3 square units
Next, calculate the area of the trapezoid:
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x (base1 + base2) x height
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x (5 + 4) x 2
Area of trapezoid = (1/2) x 9 x 2
Area of trapezoid = 9 square units
Finally, add the areas of the triangle and trapezoid to find the total area of the composite figure:
Total area = Area of triangle + Area of trapezoid
Total area = 3 + 9
Total area = 12 square units
Therefore, the correct total area of the composite figure is 12 square units.
it isnt a trapezoid, and the total area is wrong
I apologize for the misunderstanding. Let's correct the calculation.
The composite figure can be divided into a rectangle with sides 5 and 4, and a triangle with base 3 and height 2.
First, calculate the area of the rectangle:
Area of rectangle = length x width
