Question

Match the following parallelograms with their respective areas.

• A. $8.8{\text{cm}}^2$
• B. $15{\text{cm}}^2$
• C. $28{\text{cm}}^2$

Answer 1

$\text{Area of a parallelogram}=\text{base}\times \text{height}$

Area of the first parallelogram
= 2 $\times$ 4.4 = 8.8${\text{cm}}^2$

Area of the second parallelogram
= 5 $\times$ 3 = 15${\text{cm}}^2$

Area of the third parallelogram
= 7 $\times$ 4 = 28 ${\text{cm}}^2$
