Answer: 33 units²

Explanation:

We have four triangles that we will find the area for. Since we have two sets of equivalent triangles, we will use A = BH for both different sizes, but we won't divide by two (since we have two).

A = BH

A = (3)(9)

A = 27 units²

A = BH

A = (3)(2)

A = 6 units²

Now, we will add these two sets of triangles together.

A = 27 units² + 6 units²

A = 33 units²
