Question

Calculate the area. Each square measures 1 square cm.

Answer 1

Area of the parallelogram is 12 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

• Step 1: The shape is that of a parallelogram. It can also be viewed as a rectangle when the triangle at the right side is placed to the side of the right triangle on the left side. The rectangle is formed with breadth covering 3 squares and length covering 4 squares.

Area of the rectangle = length × breadth

⇒ Area = 4 × 3 = 12 cm²
