Answer:

The new area is 4 times the original area

Explanation:

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to


A=bh

where

b is the base

h is the height

If the height is multiplied by 4

then

the new area is equal to


A=(b)(4h)


A=4bh

therefore

The new area is 4 times the original area
