Answer:
Area = [tex]9x^2[/tex] square units
Step-by-step explanation:
Key skills needed: Area of a parallelogram
1) This shape is a parallelogram, and the way to find the area of a parallelogram is:
[tex]A = bh[/tex]
A = area
b = base (the side at the bottom
h = the height ( the length that runs from one side to another and makes a right angle)
2) The base (b) would be 3x. The height (h) would also be 3x
3) This means A = [tex]3x(3x)[/tex]
3 times 3 is 9 --> and x times x is [tex]x^2[/tex]
Therefore the area is --> [tex]9x^2[/tex]
Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D
