Question
Find the area of the parallelogram: (Unit = square inches)
- 40
- 48
- 25
- 50
The correct answer is: 48
48 sq inch
We know that area of a parallelogram = base x height
Given, base = 6 inch and height = 8 inch.
Area = 6 x 8 = 48 sq inch
A parallelogram can be thought of as a combination of 2 triangles of equal area .
Area of 1 triangle = ½ x base x height.
Area of 2 triangles = 2x ½ x base x height = base x height.
