Composite Shapes - Question 2

Answer:
[tex]92[/tex] [tex]cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split this into 2 different rectangles a 12 by 5 rectangle and a 4 by 8 rectangle.
So first lets find the art of the first rectangle
[tex]12*5=60[/tex]
And find the area of the second rectangle
[tex]4*8=32[/tex]
Now add the two areas to find the area of the entire shape
[tex]60+32=92[/tex] [tex]cm^2[/tex]
I hope this helps :O
