First, let us define a parallelogram. A parallelogram has 4 sides. It is formed by two pairs of parallel lines on the opposite sides. Opposite sides of the parallelogram are equal in length and also equal in measure. Area of a parallelogram can be found by multiplying the base by the height. The formula is:
A = B * H where B is the base, H is the height.
Find the area of a parallelogram with a base of 8ft and a height of 9ft.
Solution:
A = B * H
A = (8 ft) · (9 ft)
A = 72 ft2.
