No. They are given to be parallel.

join AE    area △ACD=area△AEC  [same base AC, AC∥DE]  area△ABC+△ACD=△ABC+△AEC  area(ABCD)=area△ABE  area(ABCD)=(1/2)×4×7=14cm^2
$${join}\:{AE}\: \\ $$$$\:{area}\:\bigtriangleup{ACD}={area}\bigtriangleup{AEC} \\ $$$$\left[{same}\:{base}\:{AC},\:{AC}\parallel{DE}\right] \\ $$$${area}\bigtriangleup{ABC}+\bigtriangleup{ACD}=\bigtriangleup{ABC}+\bigtriangleup{AEC} \\ $$$${area}\left({ABCD}\right)={area}\bigtriangleup{ABE} \\ $$$${area}\left({ABCD}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\mathrm{4}×\mathrm{7}=\mathrm{14}{cm}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$

why area ΔACD = Δ ACE ?
$$\mathrm{why}\:\mathrm{area}\:\Delta\mathrm{ACD}\:=\:\Delta\:\mathrm{ACE}\:? \\ $$

triangles with same base and same height  have same area. AC is the base and the distance  between the parallels is the height
$$\mathrm{triangles}\:\mathrm{with}\:\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{base}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{height} \\ $$$$\mathrm{have}\:\mathrm{same}\:\mathrm{area}.\:{AC}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{base}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{distance} \\ $$$$\mathrm{between}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{parallels}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{height} \\ $$

they are in same base AC and  between parallel AC and DE
$${they}\:{are}\:{in}\:{same}\:{base}\:{AC}\:{and} \\ $$$${between}\:{parallel}\:{AC}\:{and}\:{DE} \\ $$
