Answer:

166cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the area of the composite shape, find the area of rectangle and subtract the area of the triangle from it:

Area of rectangle =  16 x 11 = 176cm^2

Area of triangle = 1/2 x 4 x 5 = 10cm^2.

Since the shape is a rectangle, which the supposed shape of a triangle removed, subtract the area of triangle from that of rectangle:

176-10 = 166cm^2

Hope this helps

Good Luck
