Answer:
Area = 100 ft^2
Explanation:
To calculate the area of this composite shape, you need to find the area of all shapes and add them together.
1. Break the composite shape into different shapes.
Shapes: one rectangle, one square, and one triangle.
2. Find the area of each of them.
Rectangle
L= 8ft
W= 10ft
A= L x W
A= 8ft x 10ft
A= 80ft^2
Square
L= 4ft
W=10ft - 6ft = 4ft
A= L x W
A= 4ft x 4ft
A= 16ft^2
Triangle
A= 1/2 x base x height
b= 14ft -8ft-4ft = 2ft
h= 10ft - 6ft =4ft
A= 1/2 (2ft x 4ft)
A= 1/2 (8 ft^2)
A= 4ft^2
3. Add all the areas.
Area = Rectangle Area+ Square Area+ Triangle Area
A = 80ft^2 + 16ft^2 + 4ft^2
A= 100ft^2
Hope this helps!
