Answer:

The answer is B. 340 square centimeters.

Explanation:

To find the area of a rhomboid (a slanted rectangle like this one), use the formula A = b·h. Multiply 20 by 17 and you'll get 340.


I hope this helped! :-)

Answer:

340 square centimeters

Explanation:

we have to find the area of given parallelogram using height and base of parallelogram.

in question diagram, we observe that

base=b= 20 cm and height=h= 17 cm

we can find the area of parallelogram by taking the product of base and height of parallelogram.

Area= base× height

Area = 20 × 17 square centimeters

Area = 340 square centimeters

340 cm² is area of parallelogram.
