The answer = 88 square units.
Explanation: In this particular shape, u would have to break up the parallelogram into smaller shapes. Break the pieces into two equal triangles and one square. For the formula of a triangle, it is A = 1/2bh. A trick that u can do is to just find the formula of one triangle and then you won’t have to multiply 1/2 to each. For the triangle, the base is 3 and the height is 8. If u multiply that, u get 24. Now, the formula of the square is simple. A = bh. The base of the square is 8, and the height is also 8. So if u multiply that, u get 64. The final step is to add both of the areas of the individual shapes. 64 + 24. If u add those two together, u would get 88. So that means that the area of the parallelogram = 88 square units :)
Hope this helped!
