Answer:

  20 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is given by the formula ...

  A = bh

where b is the base of the parallelogram, and h is the perpendicular distance between the parallel bases. Using the numbers from the figure, we have ...

  A = 5·4 = 20 . . . . square units

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You will notice this is the same formula as is used for a rectangle. You can consider the parallelogram to have the same area as a rectangle of these dimensions if you look at what happens when you cut the right triangle from the right end and add it to the left end. The result is a rectangle 5 units wide and 4 units high.

The same formula applies even if the skew is so great that the bases do not overlap. (That much skew would not result in a triangle of the kind shown in this diagram.)

A rectangular metal plate is measured to be 7.6cm long and 3.1cm wide, both correct to one decimal place.
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

We know that the rectangular plate has measures of:

length = 7.6 ± 0.05 cm

width = 3.1 ± 0.05 cm

(the error is 0.05cm because we know that both measures are correct to one decimal place)

First, the upper bound of the length is equal to the measure of the length plus the error, this is:

L = 7.6 cm + 0.05 cm = 7.65 cm

The upper bound of the area is the area calculated when we use the upper bound of the length and the upper bound of the widht.

Remember that the area for a rectangle of length L and width W, is:

A = W*L

Then the upper bound of the area is:

A = (7.6cm + 0.05cm)*(3.1cm + 0.05cm) = 10.8 cm^2
