Answer:
<u>complete question:</u>
If the height and base of the parallelogram shown are each decreased by 2 cm, what is the area of the new parallelogram?
A parallelogram with a base of 10 centimetres and a height of 8 centimetres
area = 48 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is quadrilateral with 4 sides formed by 2 pair of parallel lines. The area of a parallelogram is represented as follows :
area of parallelogram = B × H
where
B = breadth
H = height
According to the question the height and the base each reduced by 2 cm.
The new base = 10 - 2 = 8 cm
The new height = 8 - 2 = 6 cm
area = B × H
area = 8 × 6
area = 48 cm²
Answer:
Answer is 105 in^2
Step-by-step explanation: Area of rectangle= length X breadth
= 8X12
=96in^ 2
Area of triangle= 1/2 X base X height
= 1/2 X 3 X 6
= 9 in^2
Area of irregular pentagon = area of triangle + area of rectangle
= 96+9
=105 in ^2
