0. The shape is composed of two rectangles. The dimensions of the first rectangle are 12 in and 5 in. The dimensions of the second rectangle are 4 in and 11 in.

2. Solution Steps

First, we find the area of the first rectangle. The area of a rectangle is given by:

$Area = length \times width$

For the first rectangle, $length = 12$ in and $width = 5$ in. Thus, the area of the first rectangle is:

$Area_1 = 12 \times 5 = 60$ square inches.

Next, we find the area of the second rectangle. The length is 11 in and the width is 4 in. Thus, the area of the second rectangle is:

$Area_2 = 11 \times 4 = 44$ square inches.

Finally, we add the areas of the two rectangles to find the total area:

$Total Area = Area_1 + Area_2 = 60 + 44 = 104$ square inches.

3. Final Answer

The area of the composite shape is 104 square inches.
