The area of the window will be 60 square inches. Then the correct option is B.

What is a parallelogram?

It is a polygon with four sides. The total interior angle is 360 degrees. A parallelogram's opposite sides are parallel and equal.

A small window in a barn is shaped like a parallelogram. The height of the window is half the length of the base of the window.

The formula for area is L x W, since they claim the base is 12in and even state the length is 10 in all that is needed is to multiply 12 x 10 to get 120.

The area of the window is 120 inches and half of 120 is 60 Area articulates the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object.

The area of the window will be 60 square inches. Then the correct option is B.
