Let's solve each of the four problems step by step.

Question 1: Area of a Rectangle



Given:
- Length = 20 in
- Width = 9 in

Formula for area of a rectangle:
$$
\text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
$$

$$
\text{Area} = 20 \times 9 = 180 \text{ in}^2
$$

Answer: B) 180 in²

Question 2: Area of a Parallelogram



Given:
- Base = 11 m
- Height = 7 m (note: height is perpendicular to the base, shown as dashed line)

Formula for area of a parallelogram:
$$
\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}
$$

$$
\text{Area} = 11 \times 7 = 77 \text{ m}^2
$$

Answer: A) 77 m²

> Note: The side labeled 8 m is not the height — it’s just a slanted side. We use the perpendicular height (7 m).

Question 3: Area of a Triangle



We are given a triangle on a grid. Let's analyze it.

From the image:
- The triangle has a base that spans 6 units horizontally.
- The height is 8 units vertically (from the base to the top vertex, measured perpendicularly).

Alternatively, we can count:

- The base = 6 units (horizontal)
- The height = 8 units (vertical, from the base to the tip)

Formula for area of a triangle:
$$
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
$$

$$
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = 24 \text{ units}^2
$$

Answer: A) 24 units²

Question 4: Area of a Trapezoid



Given:
- Base₁ = 6 m (top base)
- Base₂ = 11 m (bottom base)
- Height = 8 m (perpendicular distance between bases)

Formula for area of a trapezoid:
$$
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times (\text{Base}_1 + \text{Base}_2) \times \text{height}
$$

$$
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times (6 + 11) \times 8 = \frac{1}{2} \times 17 \times 8 = 68 \text{ m}^2
$$

But wait — this answer isn't listed? Let's check the options.

Wait! The question says "What is the area of this trapezoid?" but no options are visible in your image for Question 4.

However, based on the calculation:

$$
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times (6 + 11) \times 8 = 68 \text{ m}^2
$$

So unless there's a typo or missing option, the correct answer should be 68 m².

But since no choices are provided in your image for #4, I’ll assume you want the correct value.

Answer: 68 m²

Final Answers:



1. B) 180 in²
2. A) 77 m²
3. A) 24 units²
4. 68 m² (No options shown, but this is correct)
