You can find the area of the rectangle by simply multiplying the sides that are complete and don't touch the triangle. That is equal to 60 cm.
To find the area of the triangle, you first have to find the sides. You can find the first side by subtract the top side of the rectangle from the bottom, which gets us 3 (12-9). Then subtract the left side (5) from the right side (9) (9-5), which gets us 4. That would mean that 3*4*1/2 is equal to 6. 6+60 is equal to 66 cm.
