Question

The area of the parallelogram below is ____ square meters.

Answer 1

Answer:

14 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a parallelogram of length L and height H is

A  = L * H.

Here, the area is A = (2 meters) * (7 meters) = 14 square meters.

This answer hinged upon my understanding of this situation, and could be incorrect because I'm not taking into account the "triangle" mentioned here.  When at all possible you should share any diagrams given in the problem statement, or at least describe them accurately in words.

Answer 2

Answer:

60.4 or 63

Step-by-step explanation:

if the diagonal is 7, do a^2+b^2=c^2   to find vertical height

2^2+b^2=7^2  

4+b^2=49

b^2=45

square root

b= 6.7

solve

6.7*9=60.4

But if 7 is the vertical height, just do b x h

7*9=63
