    First, we have to get the area of the parallelogram. A = b x h.

    A = 17 feet x 9 feet

    A = 153 square feet.

    The area of the car (assume that the car is rectangle) is equal to: A = l x w.

    A = 16 x 6

    A = 96 square feet.

    The space that is not covered by the car is 153 - 96 = 37 square feet.
