Answer:

153 square units

Explanation:

The figure is drawn in the attachment with some lengths and points labeled.

The figure can be considered to have an area that is the sum of the areas of rectangle ABFE and triangle FGH, with the area of triangle BCD subtracted.

That area is ...

A = area(ABFE) +area(FGH) -area(BCD)

= (15)(9) +(1/2)(9)(6) -(1/2)(6)(3)

= 135 +27 -9 = 153 . . . square units
