Solution

The correct option is B 36 cm2
Divide the figure into 3 rectangles.
The area of figure will be the sum of areas of all the 3 rectangles.


Area of rectangle = Length x Breadth

Area of rectangle (1)
= 5 cm×3 cm=15 cm2

Area of rectangle (2)
= 5 cm×3 cm=15 cm2

Area of rectangle (3)
= 1 cm×6 cm=6 cm2

Total Area
= Area of (1) + Area of (2) + Area of (3)
=15+15+6
=30+6=36 cm2

Therefore, area of the given figure = 36 cm2.
