To calculate the area of a parallelogram, we can use the formula:
\[
\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]
In your question, you provided three dimensions: 2.5 cm, 4 cm, and 5.5 cm. To find the area, we need to identify which two of these dimensions represent the base and the height.
Assuming the base is 5.5 cm and the height is 2.5 cm (the dimensions must be such that one is the base and the other is the vertical height), we can calculate the area as follows:
\[
\text{Area} = 5.5 \, \text{cm} \times 2.5 \, \text{cm} = 13.75 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
Thus, the area of the parallelogram is \( 13.75 \, \text{cm}^2 \).
The correct option is **b 13.75 cm²**.
