To find the area of the floor covered by the tiles, we first need to calculate the area of one parallelogram-shaped tile. The area \( A \) of a parallelogram is given by the formula:

\[
A = \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

Given:
- Base = 0.28 meters
- Height = 0.34 meters

Now, we can compute the area of one tile:

\[
A = 0.28 \, \text{m} \times 0.34 \, \text{m} = 0.0952 \, \text{m}^2
\]

Next, since there are 9500 tiles on the floor, we can find the total area of the floor by multiplying the area of one tile by the number of tiles:

\[
\text{Total Area} = 0.0952 \, \text{m}^2 \times 9500 = 904.4 \, \text{m}^2
\]

Thus, the area of the floor is:

**904.4 m²**
