The area of the parallelogram formed by the lines $a_1x + b_1y + c_1 = 0$,$a_1x + b_1y + d_1 = 0$,$a_2x + b_2y + c_2 = 0$,and $a_2x + b_2y + d_2 = 0$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{|(d_1 - c_1)(d_2 - c_2)|}{\sqrt{(a_1^2 + b_1^2)(a_2^2 + b_2^2)}}$
  • B
    $\frac{(d_1 - c_1)(d_2 - c_2)}{a_1a_2 - b_1b_2}$
  • C
    $\frac{(d_1 + c_1)(d_2 + c_2)}{a_1a_2 + b_1b_2}$
  • D
    $\frac{|(d_1 - c_1)(d_2 - c_2)|}{|a_1b_2 - a_2b_1|}$
