The quadrilateral is made up of one rectangle and two right triangles. The rectangle has a height of twelve units and a length of twelve units. Each right triangle has a height of twelve units and a base of four units. What is the area, in square units, of the parallelogram? 96 square units 168 square units 192 square units 240 square units

192 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: Area of rectangle = Length x width

Area of triangle = 0.5 x base x  height

Given: A quadrilateral is made up of one rectangle and two right triangles.

Rectangle has a height of 12 units and a length of 12 units.

So, Area of rectangle = 12 x 12 = 144 sq. units

Triangle has a height of 12 units and a base of 4 units.

Area of triangle = 0.5 x 12 x 4 = 24 sq. units

Total area of quadrilateral = Area of rectangle  + 2 (Area of triangle)

= 144+ 2(24)

=144+48

= 192 sq. units

Hence, the correct option is 192 square units
