Read each question carefully and calculate the area of the complex shapes. Show all your work.
1. Find the area of the shape below. All angles are right angles. (Dimensions are in cm)
2. Calculate the area of the composite figure shown. The top part is a semicircle. (Dimensions are in meters)
3. A complex shape is composed of a rectangle with dimensions 8 cm by 6 cm and a triangle with a base of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. The total area of the complex shape is cm².
4. Which of the following formulas represents the area of a shape made of a square with side 's' and an equilateral triangle with side 's' attached to one of its sides?
s² + (√3/4)s²
s² + (1/2)s²
