It appears that the polygon is a rectangle. To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length is 12 units and the width is 6 units. So, the area of the polygon is:
Area = length x width = 12 x 6 = 72 square units
Therefore, the correct answer is 72 square units.
