D 11 square units
By decomposing the figure in simpler ones, we conclude that its area is 9 square units.
Let's read the figure from the top.
First, we can see in the top two triangles that have an area of half a square unit, then adding these two we have one square unit.
Below that, there are 4 square units inside the figure.
On the left and right sides, there are triangles of base of 1 unit and height of 2 units, then each of these triangles has an area of:
a = 1*2/2 = 1 square unit
And we have 2 of these triangles, so the total area is 2 square units.
Finally, on the bottom we can see 4 triangles like in the top part, we know that each one of these measure 0.5 square units, then the 4 add up to 2 square units.
Adding all the areas above, we see that the total area is:
A = (1 + 4 + 2 + 2) square units = 9 square units.
So the correct option is C
