Answer 2

The correct option is 4.

Explanation:

It the given composite figure we have 3 triangles and 1 rectangle.

The area of a triangle is

`A=(1)/(2)* base* height`

The area of first triangle is

`A_1=(1)/(2)* 4* 3=6`

The area of second triangle is

`A_2=(1)/(2)* 4* 3=6`

The area of third triangle is

`A_3=(1)/(2)* 8* 2=8`

The area of a rectangle is

`A=length * width`

`A_4=8 * 3`

`A_4=24`

The area of composite figure is

`A=A_1+A_2+A_3+A_4`

`A=6+6+8+24=44`

The area of composite figure is 44 units². Therefore the correct option is 4.
