Find area of composite figure with length being 20, height 6 and width 8
To find the area of a composite figure, we need to break it down into its individual shapes and add up their areas.
In this case, the composite figure consists of a rectangle with dimensions length 20 and height 6, as well as a rectangle with dimensions width 8 and height 6.
Area of first rectangle = length * height
Area of first rectangle = 20 * 6 = 120 square units
Area of second rectangle = width * height
Area of second rectangle = 8 * 6 = 48 square units
Total area of composite figure = Area of first rectangle + Area of second rectangle
Total area = 120 + 48
Total area = 168 square units
So, the area of the composite figure is 168 square units.
