Given:

A parallelogram with a base of 9 centimeters and a height of 4 centimeters.

If the height of the parallelogram shown is increased by 1 cm and the base is increased by 2 cm.

Solution:

Old base of parallelogram = 9 cm

New base of parallelogram = 9 + 2 = 11 cm

Old height of parallelogram = 4 cm

New height of parallelogram = 4 + 1 = 5 cm


Area\ of\ the\ new \ parallelogram= New\ base* New\ height
