Question

A parallelogram ABCD is shown with DC equal to 8 feet and the perpendicular distance between AB and DC equal to 3 over 4 foot. Part A: What is the area of the parallelogram? Show your work. (5 points) Part B: How can you decompose this parallelogram into two triangles? If this parallelogram was decomposed into two triangles, what would be the area of each triangle? (5 points)

Answer 1

6,3

Explanation:

hope this helps

the math section in part B shows the equation for the area of a triangle, but this math could be skipped with a similar problem if you just divide the parraellogram by 2. (logic section)
