Question

i can find the area of a composite figure by:

Explanation:

To find the area of a composite figure, we typically break it down into simpler, known geometric shapes (like rectangles, triangles, circles, etc.). Then we calculate the area of each of these simpler shapes using their respective area formulas (e.g., area of a rectangle is \( A = l \times w \), area of a triangle is \( A=\frac{1}{2}bh \), area of a circle is \( A = \pi r^{2}\), etc.). Finally, we sum up the areas of all these simpler shapes (if the composite figure is made by combining them) or subtract the areas of the removed parts from the main shape (if the composite figure has a shape with another shape cut out of it) to get the total area of the composite figure.

Answer:

Breaking the composite figure into simpler, known geometric shapes (e.g., rectangles, triangles, circles), calculating the area of each simpler shape using their respective area formulas, and then summing (or subtracting, depending on the composition) these areas to find the total area of the composite figure.
