Answer:

D. 36.56 cm²

Explanation:

The composite figure is composed of a rectangle and two semicircles.

The two semicircles makes 1 full circle.

Thus:

Area of the composite figure = area of rectangle + area of circle

= L*W + πr²

L = 6 cm

W = 4 cm

r = ½(4) = 2 cm

Area = 6*4 + π*2²

Area = 24 + 12.56

Area = 36.56 cm²
