Question

Find the area of the parallelogram by imaging that the blue triangle is moved onto the purple triangle

Answer 1

[ Answer ]

`\boxed{13 \ Units^(2) }`

[ Explanation ]

Formula For Area Of Parallelogram: Area = B · H

Base = 5 Units

Height = 3 Units

Plug Numbers Into Equation:

Area = 5 * 3

Solve:

5 * 3 = 15

The area of the parallelogram is 15
`Units^(2)`

`\boxed{[ \ Eclipsed \ ]}`

Answer 2

a = 15 units

the equation is a = bh so you multiply the base and the height of the parallelogram to find the area. moving the triangle is just a good visual.
