To solve for the area, find the area of an entire theoretical parallelogram. Then subtract the difference (the small triangle added).

Area = 1020 centimeters squared

If you need the answer in square feet, you have to convert.

(1 cm)^2 = (0.3937008 inches)^2

1 cm ^2 ≅0.155 in ^ 2 (or square inches)

A = 1020 * 0.155 ≅ 158.1 square inches

1 square inch = 0.006944444 square feet

158.1 square inches  ≅ 1.097 square feet
