Question

Describe two methods that can be used to find the area of the composite figure.

Answer 1

I have one method of finding the area for this: Draw a line so it makes it into 2 shapes. A rectangle and a square. Find the formula for those two shapes, which for both rectangle and square the formula is A=BH other known as Area = Base x Height. Than find your height and base for both shapes. Add both areas and you will have your answer (total Area for that Composite Figure). Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

You can draw a line to make a square and a rectangle to help find the area. The other method would be to form 2 squares and 1 rectangle.

This is probably wrong but I hope it helps!
