To find the area of the figure you can divide the figure into to smaller shapes
calculate the area of each of the smaller figures.
for the square
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=s\cdot s \\ A=3\cdot3 \\ A=9 \end{gathered}[/tex]For the triangle the base is the difference between the longest side which is 7 and the side on the square which is 3
[tex]7-3=4[/tex]find the area of the triangle
[tex]A=b\cdot\frac{h}{2}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} A=4\cdot\frac{3}{2} \\ A=\frac{12}{2} \\ A=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Add both areas to find the area of the figure
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_T=9+6 \\ A_T=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]
