Answer:

a)
\huge\boxed{\sf Area\ of\ Parallelogram = 6\ ft.\²}

b)
\huge\boxed{\sf Area\ of\ the\ equal\ triangles = 3\ ft.\²}

Explanation:

Part A:

Area of Parallelogram = Base * Height

Where Base = 8 ft. and Height = 3/4 ft.

Area of Parallelogram = 8 * 3/4

Area of Parallelogram = 2 * 3

Area of Parallelogram = 6 ft.²


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Part B:

We can divide the parallelogram into two equal triangles by drawing a diagonal AC or BD. This would create two congruent triangles having an equal area.

Area of the equal triangles = Area of parallelogram / 2

Area of the equal triangles = 6 / 2

Area of the equal triangles = 3 ft.²


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
