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.
