<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let us divide the shape into a square and a triangle for easy understanding. refer the below figure
Step 1: finding the area of the square
The side of the square is 2
Hence the area if the square
=> 2 X 2
=> 4 square units
Step 2: finding the area of the triangle
The area of the triangle =
substituting the values
The area of the triangle
=>
=>
=>
=> 2 square units
Step 3 : finding the area of the shape
The area of the shape = area of the square + area of the triangle
=> 4 + 2
=> 6 square units
