Ok, first let’s find the area of the square in the middle.
The formula for finding the area of a square is LxW, so we would multiply 3x3 to get a area of 9.
Then we would fine the area of the triangle.
The formula for finding the area of a triangle is 1/2 base x height.
So we would do the expression 1/2(3x2) which equals 3.
Since there are four triangles, we would multiply 3 by 4 to get 12.
Then we would add 12 (the area of the triangles) to 9 (the area of the square) to get a final area of 21 square meters.
To conclude, the area of the figure is 21 square meters
I hope this helped! :-)
