Question

Find the area of the parallelogram.
Answer options: 1440in^2, 1188in^2, 138in^2, 69in^2

Answer 1

1188 in²

Explanation:

We have given the base, height and a side.

Base = 36 in , height = h = 33 in and side = 40 in

We have to find the area of parallelogram.

The formula to find the area of parallelogram is:

Area = base × height

A = b × h

Putting given values in above formula, we have

Area = 36 in × 33 in

Area = 1188 in²

Hence, the area of parallelogram is 1188 in².

Answer 2

For this case, we have that by definition, the area of a parallelogram is given by:

`A = b * h`

Where:

b: It's the base

h: It's the height

In this case we have:

`b = 36 \ in\\h = 33 \ in`

So, the area is given by:

`A = 36 \ in * 33 \ in\\A = 1188 \ in ^ 2`

Thus, the area of the parallelogram shown in the figure is 1188
`in ^ 2`

Answer:

1188
`in ^ 2`
