We are asked to determine the area of the given figure. To do that we will divide the figure into a square and a triangle. The area of the square is the product of its dimension, therefore, the area is:


A_(sq)=mp

The area of the triangle is given by the following formula:


A_t=(bh)/(2)

Where "b" is the base and "h" is its height. Replacing the values:


A_t=((6)(m))/(2)=(1)/(2)6m

The total area is the sum of both areas:


A=A_(sq)+A_t

replacing the areas:


A=mp+(1)/(2)6m
