Area of a Parallelogram: Applying the formula

Calculate the area of the following parallelogram:

To solve the exercise, we need to remember the formula for the area of a parallelogram:

Side * Height perpendicular to the side

We can identify that in the diagram, although it's not presented in the way we're familiar with, we are given the two essential pieces of information -

Side = 6

Height = 5

Let's substitute into the formula and calculate:

6*5=30

And that's the solution!

30 cm²

Calculate the area of the parallelogram according to the data in the diagram.

Since we know that ABCD is a parallelogram, according to the properties of parallelograms, each pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel.

Therefore $CD=AB=10$

We will calculate the area of the parallelogram using the formula of side multiplied by the height drawn from that side, so the area of the parallelogram is equal to:

$S_{ABCD}=10\times7=70cm^2$
