Answer 1

PARALLELOGRAM -:

a quadrilateral whose both pair of opposite side are equal and parallel to each other is called a parallelogram

PROPERTIES OF PARALLELOGRAM

1. opposite sides are equal and parallel
2. opposite angles are equal
3. adjacent angle are supplementary
4. diagonal of a parallelogram bisect each other

`AREA OF PARALLELOGRAM => BASE X HEIGHT = BXH`

any side of parallelogram can be chosen as the base of parallelogram the perpendicular dropped on that side from opposite vertex is known as height attitude

Answer 2

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel.

It's properties include:

- The opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel.

- A diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.

- The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
