Answer: Area =
60√(2)

============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle on the right side is a 45-45-90 triangle

The hypotenuse is 8, so the leg length is
(8)/(√(2)) = (8√(2))/(2) = 4√(2)

This is the height of the parallelogram. The base is 15 which is always perpendicular to the height, and vice versa.

The area of this parallelogram is therefore,
\text{base*height} = 15*4√(2) = 60√(2)
