Given:

(Dimension of the dockland office)

Length = 88 m

Height = 29 m

Since it's given that it is a Parallelogram in shape, we will be using the following formula:


\text{ Area = B x H}

Where,

B = Base length

H = Height

We get,


\text{ Area = B x H}
\text{ = 88 x 29}
\text{ Area = 2,552 m}^2

Therefore, the area of the office is 2,552 m²
