Question

LESSON 1 / SESSION 3

Answer 1

A parallelogram has opposite and congruent sides

• 5 units is a reasonable estimate of the parallelogram's height
• The area of the parallelogram is 50 square units

Given that:

$Base = 10$

The height of the parallelogram

The attached diagram does not show the full picture of the parallelogram; however the parallelogram's height is independent of its base.

So, we can conclude that 5 units is a reasonable estimate

The area

The area of a parallelogram is:

$Area = Base \times Height$

So, we have:

$Area = 10 \times 5$

$Area = 50$

Hence, the area of the parallelogram is 50 square units.
