To find the area of the highlighted rectangle in the prism's base, you'll need to determine its length and width.

If you have a diagram showing the dimensions of the rectangles, please refer to that diagram to identify the specific measurements for the highlighted rectangle.

If you provide me with the specific lengths and widths you can see in the diagram or any other context, I can help you calculate the area.

The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \]

Once you have the values for Length and Width, you can simply multiply those two numbers together to find the area.
