.

The area of a parallelogram (of each and any parallelogram

is half pf the product of the lengths of its diagonals and sine of the angle between them

        area of a parallelogram  =   %281%2F2%29%2Ad%5B1%5D%2Ad%5B2%5D%2Asin%28delta%29  =   %281%2F2%29%2A48%2A70%2Asin%2851%5Eo%29   cm^2.

You complete the calculation.
