Shape one / triangle:

the formula for triangles is a =1/2 x bh

5x10 = 50

50 x 1/2= 25

So the area for shape 1 is 25.

Shape two / rectangle :

the formula for quadrilaterals is a = bh

12 x 10 = 120

so the area of shape 2 is 120

Shape 1: TRIANGLE

Formula: A = 1/2 x bh

1/2 x (10)(5) = 25

AREA: 25 square yards

Shape 2: RECTANGLE

Formula: A = lw

(12)(10) = 120

AREA: 120 square yards

Sum (ADD)

25 yd^2 + 120 yd^2 = 145 yd^2

The area of the composite figure is 145 yd^2
