We are asked to solve for the lateral area of a pyramid. Given that the figure is a regular hexagon and it is equilateral.
We have base edge = 4 units and sheighteigth = 6 units.

Solving for the lateral area is shown below:
Lateral area = 6 * 1/2*4*6
Lateral area = 72 unit²

The answer is the letter "C".
