Answer 1

The area covered by 4 paving stones can be found by constructing a rectangle with dimensions equal to the base and height of the parallelogram. The base is 8 inches and the height can be found by extending the dashed line to the bottom right corner, which is also 4 inches. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 8 inches x 4 inches = 32 square inches. Since there are 4 paving stones, the total area covered is 4 x 32 square inches = 128 square inches. The answer is option D, 128 square inches.
