Answer:
239 square cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
I. Find rectangle area, when rect area = height * base
1st rectangle = 8 * 9
= 72
2nd rectangle = 9 * 9
= 81
II. Find Triangle area, when tri area = 1/2 * height * base
1st (left side) triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 4
= 1 * 4 * 4
= 16
2nd (right side) triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 4
= 16
3rd (lower side) triangle = 1/2 * 9 * 12
= 1 * 6 * 9
= 54
III. Sum of all area
= 72 + 81 + 54 + 16 + 16
= 239
So the area of figure is 239 square cm.
