You can divide the figure as follows:

  • A vertical rectangle, 5 meters tall and 2 meters wide, on the top right.
  • A horizontal rectangle, 2 meters tall and 5 meters wide, on the bottom left
  • A 2x2 meters square on the bottom right, where the two rectangles meet.

The area of the rectangles is 5x2=10 meters squared, while the area of the square is 2x2=4 meters squared.

So, the total area is 10+4=14 meters squared.
