What is Geometry?

It deals with the size of geometry, region, and density of the different forms both 2D and 3D.

The composite is made up of triangles and rectangles.

The area of the composite shape will be the sum of the area of the triangle and the area of the rectangle.

The area of the triangle will be

$\rm Area\ of\ the\ triangle = \dfrac{1}{2} * 5 * 2\\\\Area\ of\ the\ triangle = 5$

The area of the rectangle will be

$\rm Area\ of\ the\ rectangle= 8*6\\\\Area\ of\ the\ rectangle = 48$

The area of the composite shape is 48 + 5 = 53.

The area of the composite shape is 53 in².
