4: 96 m^2

Answer 2

Hi! For the area of a parallelogram, we just need to multiply the base and the height. It may sound simple but the tricky part in this problem is determining which one is the height.

For a parallelogram, the height is defined as the measurement PERPENDICULAR to the base. Therefore, for this problem, we need to multiply 14 and 4.5 instead of 14 and 6.


`14*4.5=63`

ANSWER: B. 63 square meters.
