Answer:

38.28 cm = D. 38

Explanation:

Area of the Rectangle: l x w

Length: 6 cm

With: 4 cm

Area = 4 x 6

Area of Rectangle: 24 cm

Area of the Triangle: lw(1/2)

Length: 4 cm

Width: 4 cm

Area: 4 x 4 = 16 x 1/2 = 8

Area of Triangle: 8 cm

Area of the Circle: pi x r^2 x 1/2

Radius: 2 cm

Pi: 3.14

Area: 3.14 x 2^2

Area: 3.14 x 4 = 12.56

Area of Circle: 12.56 x 1/2

Lastly, you add them all together:

24 + 8 + 6.28 = 38.28 cm
