What is the area of this composite figure? a. 135 cm2b. 207 cm2c. 249 cm2d. 279 cm2

249 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem becomes easier if we subdivide the figure, find the areas of the resulting figures and then sum them up.

Draw a vertical line straight down from the edge marked "4 cm" towards the edge marked "18 cm."  The resulting rectangle on the left is 15.5 cm long and (18 - 7.5) cm wide, or 15.5 by 10.5 cm.  Its area is 162.75 cm^2.

Next, find the area of the rectangle on the right of the line we drew.  Its width is 7.5 cm and its height (15.5 - 4) cm, resulting in an area of 86.25 cm^2.

Last, add together these two subareas:  combine 86.25 cm^2 and 162.75 cm^2.  The total area of the composite figure is then 249 cm^2 (answer).
