Solution

The correct option is B

24 cm2


The given figure can be divided into two different rectangle as shown below.


Area of the figure = Area of the black rectangle + Area of the grey rectangle
Length of the black rectangle = 4 cm (Since CD = 6 - 2 = 4 cm)
Breadth of the black rectangle= 2 cm
Area of the black rectangle = 4 cm × 2 cm = 8 cm2
Length of the grey rectangle = 8 cm
Breadth of the grey rectangle = 2 cm
Area of the grey rectangle = 8 cm × 2 cm = 16 cm2
Area of the given figure = 16 + 8 = 24 cm2
