Example 1. A city block is in the form of a parallelogram whose shorter
diagonal AB is perpendicular to side BC, as shown in the figure. The shorter sides represent streets and the longer sides represent avenues. If the distance between the avenues is 400ft and the length of each street is 500 ft, find the area of the block.
