What is the area of this parallelogram?

60 cm²

66 cm²

72 cm²

132 cm²
parallelogram a b c d with side d c parallel to side a b and side a d parallel to side b c. point f is between points d and c and connects to point b with a dotted segment. point e is between points a and b is connected to point d with a dotted segment. d f b e is a rectangle with all right angles. d f is 5 centimeters. f c is 6 centimeters. e b is 5 centimeters. a e is 6 centimeters. d e is 12 centimeters.

The area of parallelogram is: 132 cm^2.

Hence option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure of the following question based on the information provided is attached to the answer.

We know that the area of a parallelogram is given by:

area=b×h

where b denotes the base of the parallelogram and h denotes the height of the parallelogram.

Here in this question b=AB=5+6=11 cm

h=DE= 12 cm

Hence the area of parallelogram ABCD= 11×12= 132 cm^2

Hence the area of the parallelogram ABCD based on the information is 132 cm^2.

Hence, option D is correct.

x=half
