Question

If x = 8 units, y = 13 units, and h = 11 units, then what is the area of the parallelogram?

Answer 1

Answer:

the area of the parallelogram = base times the height

For the given parallelogram :

x = 8 units, y = 13 units, and h = 11 units

1) If x is the perpendicular to h

So, the base = 8 and the height = 11

So, the area = 8 * 11 = 88 square units

2) If y is the perpendicular to h

So, the base = 13 and the height = 11

So, the area = 13 * 11 = 143 square units
