Find the area of the composite figure.

Divide the figure into two rectangles.

We can divide the given figure into two rectangles: Rectangle 1: Dimensions \(7 \text{ cm} \times 3 \text{ cm}\) Rectangle 2: Dimensions \(4 \text{ cm} \times (5-3) \text{ cm} = 4 \text{ cm} \times 2 \text{ cm}\)

Calculate the area of Rectangle 1.

Area of Rectangle 1 \(= \text{length} \times \text{width} = 7 \text{ cm} \times 3 \text{ cm} = 21 \text{ cm}^2\).

Calculate the area of Rectangle 2.

Area of Rectangle 2 \(= \text{length} \times \text{width} = 4 \text{ cm} \times 2 \text{ cm} = 8 \text{ cm}^2\).

Calculate the total area.

Total area = Area of Rectangle 1 + Area of Rectangle 2 Total area \(= 21 \text{ cm}^2 + 8 \text{ cm}^2 = 29 \text{ cm}^2\)

\(\boxed{29 \text{ cm}^2}\)

\(\boxed{29 \text{ cm}^2}\)
