To find the area of the polygon, we need to divide it into two rectangles and a triangle.

The area of the larger rectangle on the left side is 6 units x 6 units = 36 square units
The area of the smaller rectangle on the right side is 4 units x 3 units = 12 square units
The area of the triangle on the right side is (1/2) x base x height = (1/2) x 4 units x 6 units = 12 square units

Adding all the areas together: 36 + 12 + 12 = 60 square units

Therefore, the area of the polygon is 60 square units.
no
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's try again:

To find the area of the polygon, we need to divide it into two rectangles and a triangle.

The area of the larger rectangle on the left side is 6 units x 6 units = 36 square units
The area of the smaller rectangle on the right side is 3 units x 4 units = 12 square units
The area of the triangle on the right side is (1/2) x base x height = (1/2) x 3 units x 6 units = 9 square units

Adding all the areas together: 36 + 12 + 9 = 57 square units

Therefore, the area of the polygon is 57 square units.

To find the area of the given polygon, we need to divide it into smaller shapes to calculate the total area.

The given polygon can be divided into two rectangles and a triangle:

1. Rectangle on the left side: Length = 6 units, Width = 6 units
Area = Length x Width = 6 units x 6 units = 36 square units

2. Rectangle on the right side: Length = 3 units, Width = 4 units
Area = Length x Width = 3 units x 4 units = 12 square units

3. Triangle on the right side: Base = 3 units, Height = 6 units
Area = (1/2) x Base x Height = (1/2) x 3 units x 6 units = 9 square units

Now, adding the areas of the rectangle and the triangle:
36 square units (larger rectangle) + 12 square units (smaller rectangle) + 9 square units (triangle) = 57 square units

Thus, the area of the given polygon is 57 square units.
no pic the answer that i gave you
Apologies for the misunderstanding. If you provided the answer choices of 72 square units, 42 square units, 36 square units, and 54 square units, and the correct answer should be among these options, let's reevaluate the area calculation.

1. Larger rectangle on the left side: Length = 6 units, Width = 6 units
Area = Length x Width = 6 units x 6 units = 36 square units

2. Smaller rectangle on the right side: Length = 4 units, Width = 3 units
Area = Length x Width = 4 units x 3 units = 12 square units

3. Triangle on the right side: Base = 3 units, Height = 6 units
Area = (1/2) x Base x Height = (1/2) x 3 units x 6 units = 9 square units

Now, adding the areas of the two rectangles and the triangle:
36 square units (larger rectangle) + 12 square units (smaller rectangle) + 9 square units (triangle) = 57 square units

Based on the options provided, none of them match the calculated area of 57 square units. Could you confirm if the correct answer should be among the choices of 72, 42, 36, or 54 square units?
