we remember that the area of a parallelogram is base times h
A=b*h
A=4.25*3.5=14.875 km^2

Since the farmer if of the shape of parallelogram, its area is given by:


Area = b*h

where b is base and h is height of parallelogram.

Base = 4.25 km

and Height = 3.5 km

Plugging the values in the formula to find the area,


Area = 4.25 * 3.5

Area =14.875 square km

Answer : Area of the farm is 14.785 square kilometers.
