Correct Answer: $6\text{ cm}^2$
Solution :
Given: AD, BE, and CF are medians of $\triangle ABC$ intersect at G.
The area of $\triangle ABC$ = $36\text{ cm}^2$
The median of the triangle divides the triangle into equal areas.
$\therefore$ Area of $\triangle CGE$ = $ \frac{\text{Area of} \triangle ABC }{6}=\frac{36}{6}=6\text{ cm}^2$
Hence, the correct answer is $6\text{ cm}^2$.
