Answer:

The area of the composite figure is 1360 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should split up the composite figure into separate shapes.

So to find area of the triangle all the way on the left, you multiply base x height then divide by 2.

30 x 34 = 1020 ÷ 2 = 520.

Then, moving on to next shape, we can break up the trapezoid into a rectangle and a triangle.

To find area of the rectangle you multiply length x width.

16 x 30 = 480.

Finally, we have the last triangle right above the rectangle. Keep in mind that the rectangle does not have a length of 40!

You have to subtract 40 - 16 which equals 24.

30 x 24 = 720 ÷ 2 = 360.

Now that we have all 3 numbers, we simply add them all together and you will get an answer of 1360 ft.

Remember to label your answer!

Answer:

1080 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a composite figure that consists of a triangle and a trapezoid.

We know that the area of these two shapes is given by the following formulas so we will put in the given values to get:

Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times 16 \times 30[/tex] = 240 ft^2

Area of trapezoid = [tex]\frac{a+b}{2} h[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16+40}{2} 30[/tex] = 840 ft^2

Area of composite figure = [tex]240+840[/tex] = 1080 ft^2
