Please help me with this

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{A=120\ in^2}`

Explanation:

`\text{The formula of an area of a parallelogram:}\\\\A=b* h\\\\b-\text{base}\\h-\text{height}\\\\\text{We have:}\\\\b=15\ in\\h=8\ in\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\A=15*8=120\ in^2`

Answer 2

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is the same as the area of a rectangle, since a parallelogram is just a skewed rectangle. The longer sides of a parallelogram are the same length, just as they are in a rectangle, and likewise for the shorter sides. To find the area, simply multiply the base, 15, times the height, 8, to get 120 in squared.
