What is the area of the composite figure in square units?
Measurements: 4,5,2, and 3
To find the area of the composite figure, we first need to identify the individual shapes that make up the figure.
The figure consists of a square with side lengths of 4 units, a rectangle with dimensions 5 units by 2 units, and another rectangle with dimensions 3 units by 2 units.
First, we find the area of each individual shape:
Area of the square = side length * side length = 4 * 4 = 16 square units
Area of the first rectangle = length * width = 5 * 2 = 10 square units
Area of the second rectangle = length * width = 3 * 2 = 6 square units
Next, we add the areas of all three shapes to find the total area of the composite figure:
Total area = 16 + 10 + 6 = 32 square units
Therefore, the area of the composite figure is 32 square units.

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's try to find the correct area of the composite figure.
The composite figure consists of a square with a side length of 4 units and a rectangle with dimensions 5 units by 2 units.
First, we find the area of the square:
Area of the square = side length * side length = 4 * 4 = 16 square units
Next, we find the area of the rectangle:
Area of the rectangle = length * width = 5 * 2 = 10 square units
To find the total area of the composite figure, we add the areas of the square and the rectangle:
Total area = 16 (square) + 10 (rectangle) = 26 square units
Therefore, the correct area of the composite figure is 26 square units. Thank you for your patience.
