Answer: 24 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the formula for the area of a parallelogram and solve.
A = bh
A = 6 * 4
A = 24 units²
Isn't this the same formula used for a rectangle? Correct! See attached, the "extra triangle" on the left side can be moved to the right side, and then we solve it like it is a rectangle.
