1 answer:

8 0

Given is a parallelogram whose base is b = 10 inches and it says height is 2 more than half-value of base i.e. h = 2 + (b ÷ 2).

So height is h = 2 + (10 ÷ 2) = 2 + 5

⇒ h = 7 inches.

We know the formula for area of parallelogram is given as follows :-

Area of parallelogram = base x height

Area of parallelogram = 10 inches x 7 inches

Area of parallelogram = 70 squared inches.

Hence, the final answer is 70 squared inches.

The area of the scale drawing would be 1080 square centimeters or (1080 cm^2). I got this answer through first finding the area of the classroom in feet (which is A= lw = [18][20] = 360 ft^2) and then I proceeded to converting it to centimeters via given scale factor (3 cm = 1 foot) and had the answer of 1080 centimeters squared.
