I will mark the rectangle as 1 and the triangle as 2.

1. A= bxh
A= (5)x(11)
A=55

2. A= bxh /2
A= (8)x(11) /2
A=44

55+44=99

Therefore, the area of the composite shape is 99.

*Reminder- For the triangle, the reason the base is 8 is because 13-5= 8 (8 is the missing base of the triangle).

I hope this helps and hopefully it’s clear! :)
