Answer:


74\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Explanation:

The composite figure can be broken down into a rectangle and a triangle. The area of a rectangle is given by
A=l\cdot w, where
l is the length of the rectangle and
w is the width of the rectangle. The area of a triangle is given by
A=(1)/(2)\cdot b\cdot h, where
b is the base of the triangle and
h is the height.

Area of rectangle:
3\cdot 13=39\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Area of triangle:
(1)/(2)\cdot 7\cdot 10=35\:\mathrm{cm^2}

Therefore, the area of the figure is equal to
39+35=\boxed{74\:\mathrm{cm^2}}
