An illustration shows a parallelogram with bottom side as 14 inches. A perpendicular dotted line from the bottom right vertex to the top side is 3 inches. The perpendicular line is denoted by two right angle symbols.
An illustration shows a parallelogram with top side as 7 centimeters. A perpendicular dotted line from the top left vertex to the bottom side is 12 centimeters. The perpendicular line makes one right angle symbol with the top side and two right angle symbols with the bottom side.
The area of the quadrilateral can be found using the formula: Area = base x height. In this case, the base is 10 cm and the height is 8 cm. Thus, the area of the quadrilateral is:
Area = 10 cm x 8 cm = 80 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 80 cm^2.
