Exploring Area of Composite Figures

The video tutorial covers the concept of composite figures, which are shapes made up of multiple basic shapes. It provides a detailed explanation of how to calculate the area of composite figures using examples like an arrow and an ice cream cone. The tutorial demonstrates the process of finding the area of individual shapes, such as rectangles and triangles, and then combining them to find the total area. It also includes a practical example involving a half-circle and a triangle to illustrate the concept further.

What is the formula to calculate the area of a rectangle?

• Length + Width

• Base x Height

• 1/2 x Base x Height

• Pi x Radius^2

What is the base of the triangle in the composite arrow shape?

• 23 inches

• 15 inches

• 27 inches

• 6 inches

How do you calculate the area of a triangle?

• 1/2 x Base x Height
