Answer:
Explanation:
Multiply each term of (x² + 2x - 1) by x and multiply each term of (x² + 2x - 1) by 3
Area of parallelogram = bh
= (x² + 2x - 1)(x + 3)
= (x² + 2x - 1)*x + (x² + 2x - 1)*3
=x²*x + 2x*x - 1*x + x²*3 +2x*3 - 1*3
= x³ + 2x² - x + 3x² + 6x - 3
= x³ + 2x² + 3x² -x + 6x - 3
= x³ + 5x² + 5x - 3
