Answer 1

Consider that the area (A) of a parallelogram with base (B) and height (H) is given by,

`A=B\cdot H`

Observe the given diagram carefully.

As per the given data,

`\begin{gathered} B=13 \\ H=9 \end{gathered}`

Note that here all the linear units are used in feet (ft).

Substitute the values in the expression of area, and simplify the expression,

`\begin{gathered} A=13\cdot9 \\ A=117 \end{gathered}`

Thus, the area of the given parallelogram is 117 square feet,
