Answer :
The area of parallelogram is 108 square inches
Solution:
The formula for area of parallelogram is:
[tex]Area = base \times height[/tex]
From given,
[tex]Base = 1\frac{1}{2}\ feet = \frac{2 \times 1 + 1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}\ feet[/tex]
[tex]Height = 6\ inches[/tex]
Convert feet to inches
1 feet = 12 inches
[tex]\frac{3}{2}\ feet = \frac{3}{2} \times 12\ inches = 18\ inches[/tex]
Therefore, area of parallelogram is:
[tex]Area = 18 \times 6\\\\Area = 108[/tex]
Thus area of parallelogram is 108 square inches
