AB = 34 cm    BC = 20 cm      AC = 42  cm

s = (34+20+42)/2 = 48 cm

Area of triangle ABC
    = √[s (s-a) (s-b)(s-c) ]
    = 6 * 4 * 14 cm²

Area of parallelogram is twice the area of triangle ABC.

consider the triangle ABC
AB=34
BC=20
CA=42
=>S=(34+20+42)/2
       =48
remember that area of a triangle=√s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
                                             =√48*14*28*6
                                              =336cm²
area of parallelogram=2*336=672cm²
