What is the area of a parallelogram if its length is x + 4 and its height is x + 3?

  1. x^2 + 7x + 12

  2. x^2 + 7x + 7

  3. x^2 + 7x + 10

  4. x^2 + 8x + 12

The correct answer is: x^2 + 7x + 12

In order to find the area of a parallelogram, you multiply the base (length) by the height. In this case, the length is x + 4 and the height is x + 3. Thus, to find the area, you would compute (x + 4) * (x + 3) which simplifies to x^2 + 7x + 12. Therefore, the correct answer is A.
