I'm sorry, but the specific details of the composite shape are needed in order to calculate its area. If you provide the shape's dimensions or a description, I will be able to help you calculate the area.

12in 9 in 18 in

To find the area of the composite shape given the dimensions of 12in, 9in, and 18in, we need to break it down into simpler shapes and calculate the area of each individual shape.

The composite shape appears to be a combination of a rectangle and a triangle. Here's how we can calculate the total area:

1. The rectangle: The rectangle has dimensions of 12in by 9in. The area of a rectangle is given by the formula:
Area = length x width
Area = 12in x 9in
Area = 108 square inches

2. The triangle: The triangle has a height of 9in and a base of 18in. The area of a triangle is given by the formula:
Area = 0.5 x base x height
Area = 0.5 x 18in x 9in
Area = 81 square inches

3. Total area of the composite shape:
Total Area = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle
Total Area = 108 square inches + 81 square inches
Total Area = 189 square inches

Therefore, the area of the composite shape with dimensions of 12in, 9in, and 18in is 189 square inches.
