Question

Find the area of each of the following parallelograms:

Answer 1

Solve for area of the parallelogram

From the given figure, we observe that,

Height of the parallelogram $h=3.5cm$

Base of the parallelogram $b=2.5cm$

We know that, area of parallelogram $\mathbf{=}\mathit{b}\mathbf{\times }\mathit{h}$

$\therefore$ Area of the parallelogram $=2.5\times 3.5=8.75c{m}^2$

Hence, area of the given parallelogram is $8.75c{m}^2$.
