Answer: SECOND OPTION

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram can be calculated with this formula:

A=bh

Where "b" is the of one base and "h" is the height.

You can observe in the figure that "b" and "h" are:

$b=AB=4√(2)ft\\\\h=AX=3ft$

Then, substituting these values into the formula, you get that the area of the given parallelogram is:

$A=(4√(2)ft)(3ft)\\\\A=12√(2)ft^2$

This matches with the second option.
