Exploring Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions

The video tutorial covers the calculation of areas for composite figures, which are shapes that can be divided into simpler geometric figures like rectangles, trapezoids, and circles. It provides step-by-step examples, including a rectangle with a trapezoid, a parallelogram with semicircles, and a semicircle with an isosceles triangle. The tutorial also explains how to find the area of shaded regions by subtracting the area of non-shaded parts. Key concepts include using formulas for basic shapes, applying the Pythagorean theorem, and understanding the subtraction method for shaded areas.

What is the first step in calculating the area of a composite figure?

• Find the longest side of the figure

• Add the areas of all shapes together

• Calculate the perimeter of the figure
