Answer:

Find the area of the base of the cylinder using A = (pi)r 2 . Subtract your answer from the 80 square inches for the cube and the area of the cylinder. 4. Add the surface areas of each figure to get the total area of the composite figures.

The surface area of the composite figure is 510 square centimeters.

Let's say it's a rectangular prism with dimensions 3cm x 10cm x 15cm.

The surface area of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:

Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Where:

l = length

w = width

h = height

Given:

l = 15cm

w = 10cm

h = 3cm

Surface Area = 2 * (15 * 10) + 2 * (15 * 3) + 2 * (10 * 3)

Surface Area = 2 * 150 + 2 * 45 + 2 * 30

Surface Area = 300 + 90 + 60

Surface Area = 450 + 60

Surface Area = 510 square centimeters

Therefore, the surface area of the composite figure is 510 square centimeters.
