Question

Find the area of the composite shape

Answer 1

Answer:

99 square ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the composite shape

= Area of rectangle - Area of triangle

$= 12 \times 10 - \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 7 \\ \\ = 120 - 21 \\ \\ = 99 \: {ft}^{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

99 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply solve for the rectangle using a=lw

12 x 10 = 120

Now subtract the area of the triangle using a=bh/2

7 x 6= 42

42/2= 21

120-21= 99

Hope this helps.
