Answer:


96\: cm^2

Explanation:

  • Given composite figure is a trapezoid.

  • Where,
    b_1= 14\: cm,\: b_2= 10\: cm, \:\&\: h = 8\: cm

  • Formula for area of trapezoid is given as:


  • A(trapezoid) =(1)/(2)(b_1+b_2)(h)


  • \implies A(trapezoid) =(1)/(2)(14+10)(8)


  • \implies A(trapezoid) =(1)/(2)(24)(8)


  • \implies A(composite\: figure) =96\: cm^2
