I have included attachment below

so since a rhombus is 2 pairs of paralell sides, we can cut it into 4 triangles
we can see that we can take the bottom 2 triangles and put them on top to get a rectangle that is width 21 and height 32/2 (16=height
area of rectangle=legnth times width=16 times 21=336 m^2

answer is 336 m^2
