Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

It stats that there are 4 sides, so you can assume the parallelogram is a rectangle. Rectangles have congruent sides, once you know one side you know the opposite. At this given side, you would already know 2 of the sides are 12 inches. 72-12=48. The last 2 sides are congruent, so you take 48/2=24.
