To find the area of the quadrilateral, we first need to find the height of the parallelogram.
From the information given, we know that the height of the parallelogram is 8 inches.
Next, we calculate the area:
Area = base x height
Area = 10 inches x 8 inches
Area = 80 square inches
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 80 in. squared.
So, the answer is:
80 in.2
80 in. squared
