Final answer:
The area of a parallelogram is found by multiplying the base by the height. Without specific dimensions, we cannot calculate it but we can provide the method to do so when dimensions are known.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the area of a parallelogram, but no specific dimensions are provided. To find the area of a parallelogram in general, you multiply the base by the height. However, since this question does not provide enough information to calculate the area, we can only explain the process. The same formula is used with triangles, rectangles, and other shapes but with slight modifications. For example, the formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 × base × height, while the area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width.
In the case of a rectangle provided in the supporting information, the area of a garden plot that is 36.7 cm by 128.8 cm would be calculated by multiplying these two dimensions together, and then, if needed, converting to square meters. However, for a parallelogram, as long as you know the base and the height, you use the same multiplication approach without the 1/2 factor used in triangles.
