To find the total area of the shape, you need to add the areas of all the rectangles together.
Given:
- Rectangle 1: 9 cm²
- Rectangle 2: 6 cm²
- Rectangle 3: 4 cm²
Total Area = Area of Rectangle 1 + Area of Rectangle 2 + Area of Rectangle 3
Total Area = 9 cm² + 6 cm² + 4 cm²
Total Area = 19 cm²
Therefore, the total area is 19 cm².
