Respuesta :
you solve the problem in two parts. where the dotted line is, you use that to make this figure into two shapes.
Answer:
Area: 62m
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have a composite shape which means it is a shape made of multiple shapes. We can see a doted line going from one side of the shape to the other side. It is separating the shape and sectioning it into 2 shapes.
Second, we are going to use the 2 shapes and get their areas and then combine them to get the actual area of the full composite shape.
From Left to Right:
L x W = A
6m x 5m = 30m
Area of Left Shape: 30m
8m x 4m = 32m
Area of Right Shape: 32m
30m + 32m equals 62m.
Therefore the area of this composite shape is 62m.
Hope this helps!
