What is the area of the figure plz

The answer would be B. 48cm squared(2)

To solve: You need to figure out the area of the two parts by finding the area of each figure separately, so what I would do is make a imaginary line for the line to the left of the 6, after you do that you will have two different figures, then you do 6×2 to find the area of the first figure, then do 9×4 to find the are of the second figurethat would give you 12 and 36. You then add both 12 and 36 together to get the awnser of 48cm squaredif you need more help I would be morw then happy to do so. Just message me back
