composite!
How do you find the volume of a composite shape?
A figure (or shape) that can be divided into more than one of the basic figures is said to be a composite figure (or shape).For example, figure ABCD is a composite figure as it consists of two basic figures. That is, a figure is formed by a rectangle and triangle as shown below.The area of a composite figure is calculated by dividing the composite figure into basic figures and then using the relevant area formula for each basic figure.Example 20Find the area of the following composite figure:Solution:The figure can be divided into a rectangle and triangle as shown below.So, the area of the composite figure is 216 cm2.
What is the formula to volume of a composite figure?
It is the sum of the volumes of the constituent parts.
How do you find the surface are of a composite figure?
Add the areas of all shapes or all faces that make up the composite figure.
How can you find out if a figure has the same volume?
By comparing the volume given to each figure.
How do you find a volume of a L-Shaped figure?
An L shaped figure is a plane figure and so will not have a volume.
How do you find the perimeter of a composite figure?

How do you figure out how many gallons in a pool?
find the volume of the pool find the volume of one gallon in whatever unit you are using. divide pool volume by gallon volume
How do you find the volume of a pentegon?
There's nothing to find. A pentagon is a flat (2D) figure. It can be drawn on a sheet of paper, and it has no volume.
When do you find an area or a volume by separating the figure into smaller figure?
when its a irregular shape you divide it up
