Given a parallelogram as shown below:

The formula to calculate the area of the parallelogram is given to be:


A=b* h

From the question provided, we have the following parameters:


\begin{gathered} a=12\text{ yd} \\ b=11\text{ yd} \\ h=9\text{ yd} \end{gathered}

Therefore, we can use the formula to calculate the area as shown below:


\begin{gathered} A=b* h \\ A=11*9 \\ A=99yd^2 \end{gathered}

The area of the parallelogram is 99 squared yards (99 yd²).

Find the area of this parallelogram. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer-example-1
