Answer:
45 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
area of the figure
split the figure and form to figure rectangle and square
for rectangle
length = 6 cm + 3 cm
=9 cm
breadth = 4 cm
area of rectangle = l*b
=9 cm * 4 cm
=36 cm^2
for square
length =3 cm
area of square = (3 cm)^2
=9 cm^2
area of figure = area of rectangle + area of square
=36 cm^2 + 9 cm^2
=45 cm^2
