Aparallelogram has a base of 3.5 units and a corresponding height of 2 units what is the area (look at picture)

Question 5:

a) Given: A parallelogram with base = 3.5 units and height = 2 units.

We have to determine the area of the parallelogram.

Area of parallelogram with base 'b' and height 'h' is given by the formula:

.

So, area of parallelogram =

Area of parallelogram =

Area = 7 square units.

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram is 7 square units.

b) Given: A parallelogram with base = 3 units and area = 1.8 square units.

We have to determine the height of the parallelogram.

Since, area of parallelogram =

1.8 square units =

h = units

h = 0.6 units

Therefore, the height of the parallelogram is 0.6 units.

c) Given a parallelogram with area = 20.4 square units and height = 4 units

We have to determine the base of the parallelogram.

Area of parallelogram =

b =

b = 5.1 units

Therefore, the base of the parallelogram is 5.1 units.
