The area of the figure is 28.5 meters squared
Step-by-step explanation
Divide the figure into two triangles and a rectangle.

The area of the triangle at the top is:
6 x 2 /2= 6

The area of the triangle on the right is:
3 x 3 /2= 4.5

The area of the rectangle on the center is:
3 x 6 = 18

Add the all up:
18 + 4.5 + 6 = 28.5

Have a nice day.

6 * 3 + 6 * 2 * (1)/(2) + 3 * 3 * (1)/(2) = 18 + 6 + (9)/(2) = (57)/(2) = 28.5m
