Question

what is the area of parallelogram abcd? 25 square units 16 square units 24 square units 20 square units

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates of points

Assume A(5,3), B(5,-1), D(0,-1) from grid.

Step2: Calculate vectors AB and AD

AB = B - A = (0,-4); AD = D - A = (-5,-4)

Step3: Compute cross product magnitude

Area = |ABxADy - AByADx| = |0(-4) - (-4)(-5)| = 20

Answer:

20 square units
