Q:

SOMEONE HELP ME FIND THE AREA OF THIS PARALLELOGRAM

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:A = 13.5 cm²Step-by-step explanation:* Lets explain how to find the area of the parallelogram- In any parallelogram each two opposite sides are parallel- In any parallelogram each two opposite sides are equal in length- Each two opposite sides have height perpendicular on them- So the parallelogram has 2 different bases and 2 different heights- The area of the parallelogram = base × the height of this base* Lets solve the problem- The lengths of the two bases of the parallelogram are 4.5 cm , 5 cm- The height of the base which length is 4.5 is 3 cm- We will calculate the area of the parallelogram from this base∵ The base of the parallelogram = 4.5 cm∵ The height of this base = 3 cm∵ Area of parallelogram = base × its height∴ Area of parallelogram = 4.5 × 3 = 13.5 cm²* The area of the following parallelogram is 13.5 cm²
