Question

Find the area of each of the following parallelograms:

Answer 1

\(Area \;of\; parallelogram = Base \times Height\)
(a)\( Height= 4 \;cm\)
\(Base = 7\; cm\)
\(Area\; of \;parallelogram = 7 \times 4 = 28 \;cm^2\)

---

(b) \(Height= 3 \;cm\)
\(Base = 5 \;cm\)
\(Area \;of \;parallelogram = 5 \times 3 = 15 \;cm^2\)

---

(c) \(Height= 3.5 \;cm\)
\(Base = 2.5 \;cm\)
\(Area\; of\; parallelogram = 2.5 \times 3.5 = 8.75 \;cm^2\)

---

(d) \(Height= 4.8 \;cm\)
\(Base = 5 \;cm\)
\(Area\; of\; parallelogram = 5 \times 4.8 = 24 \;cm^2\)

---

(e) \(Height= 4.4 \;cm\)
\(Base = 2 \;cm\)
\(Area\; of\; parallelogram = 2 \times 4.4 = 8.8 \;cm^2\)
