Answer:

The area of parallelogram is: 132 cm^2.

Hence option D is correct.

Explanation:

The figure of the following question based on the information provided is attached to the answer.

We know that the area of a parallelogram is given by:

area=b×h

where b denotes the base of the parallelogram and h denotes the height of the parallelogram.

Here in this question b=AB=5+6=11 cm

h=DE= 12 cm

Hence the area of parallelogram ABCD= 11×12= 132 cm^2

Hence the area of the parallelogram ABCD based on the information is 132 cm^2.

Hence, option D is correct.
