Question

Find the area.Then simplify your answer

Answer 1

A =
`x^(2) +12x+27`

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is given by A=b*h where b is the base of the entire shape and h as the perpendicular distance between the bases.

In this case, b=x+9 and h=x+3

A = b*h = (x+9)*(x+3) =
`x^(2) +3x+9x+27` =
`x^(2) +12x+27`
