An irregular shape that can be divided into familiar shapes like rectangles, triangles, and circles is often referred to as a composite shape. By breaking it down into these simpler components, you can calculate the area of each individual shape and then sum them up to find the total area of the irregular shape. This method allows for easier computation and understanding of more complex geometries.
An irregular shape can often be decomposed into familiar geometric figures such as triangles, rectangles, or circles. For example, an L-shaped figure can be split into two rectangles, while a more complex polygon might be divided into several triangles. This method of decomposition is useful in geometry for calculating area or understanding properties of the shape. By breaking down the irregular shape, it becomes easier to analyze and work with.
Circles don't, but the others do, if you think of squares and rectangles as parallelograms.
Circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles are solids that have a flat surface.

That is correct and a kite is one such example.

Circles, some triangles, and irregular polygons
A composite figure is a figure that is made up of several smaller geometric figures like triangles, circles, or rectangles.
Because they (IMO) have the simplest area to find, to just square side. Triangles are half of a square Rectangles are uneven. Circles are rounded, and hard to find the area of. Plus, a square has 2 equal dimensions, so think 2D.
