~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



The shape in the figure is a square with four cut triangles.


The side of the square is 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 units, so its area is 9 square units.


Of four cut triangles, each of them is a right angled isosceles triangle with 
leg size of 1 unit, so the area of each such triangle is 1/2.


Thus the area of the shape under the question is  9 - 4 * (1/2) = 9 - 2 = 7 square units.


<U>ANSWER</U>.  The area of the shape under the question is  7 square units.



Solved.
