Answer:

The area is 35 square units.

Explanation:

The entire figure is formed by four triangles and a rectangle, whose sum represents the total area (
A_(T)), in square units, represented by the following formula:


A_(T) = A_(1) + A_(2) + A_(3) + A_(4) + A_(5) (1)

Where:


A_(1),
A_(2),
A_(3),
A_(4) - Areas of the four triangles.


A_(5) - Area of the rectangle.

By using the area formulas of a triangle and rectangle we expand the equation described above:


A_(T) = (1)/(2)\cdot (3)\cdot (6) + (1)/(2)\cdot (3)\cdot (2) + (1)/(2)\cdot (2)\cdot (2) + (1)/(2)\cdot (3)\cdot (6) + (2)\cdot (6)


A_(T) = 35\,u^(2)

The area is 35 square units.
