Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of ​​the complete figure we must first do

-Find the area of ​​the triangle using the formula for the area of ​​the triangle; A=bxh/2

-Then find the area of ​​the irregular rectangle using the formula A = b x h

Finally we must add the two areas found, the exercise is as follows:


\begin{gathered} A1=(\text{Triangle)} \\ A2=(\operatorname{Re}c\tan gle) \\ A1=\frac{6\operatorname{cm}*12\operatorname{cm}}{2}=(72)/(2)=36\operatorname{cm} \\ A2=21cm*12cm=252\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{Now we must }add\text{ the two areas} \\ AT=36\operatorname{cm}+252\operatorname{cm}=288\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{ANSWER: The correct option is C : }288cm^2 \end{gathered}
