The area of the following parallelogram is ______.

• A. $10c{m}^2$
• B. $15c{m}^2$
• C. $11c{m}^2$
• D. $18c{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $15c{m}^2$

$\text{Area of parallelogram}=\text{base}\times \text{height}$
Here, base = 5 cm and height = 3 cm
$\therefore \text{Area of parallelogram}=5\times 3=15c{m}^2$
