Answer:
area of the compostie figure = 34 squre units
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of this composite figure , first find the area of the trapezoid
then we subtract the area of rectangle (white part of the figure at the bottom)
Area of the trapezoid = (base1+base2)/2 times height
base 1= 10
base 2=6, height = 5
Area of a trapezoid = [tex]\frac{10+6}{2} *5[/tex]= 40
Area of the rectangle = length * width
= 3*2= 6
Now area of the compostie figure = 40 - 6= 34 squre units
