To find the area of the polygon, we need to divide it into smaller rectangles and triangles.
There are two rectangles and two triangles in the polygon.
Rectangle 1: 3 units x 4 units = 12 square units
Rectangle 2: 4 units x 3 units = 12 square units
Triangle 1: 3 units x 2 units = 6 square units
Triangle 2: 4 units x 3 units / 2 = 6 square units
Total area = 12 + 12 + 6 + 6 = 36 square units
Therefore, the area of the polygon is 36 square units.
