Question

Find the area and perimeter of a parallelogram, the sides are 12cm, 7cm

Answer 1

Answer:

perimeter is 38and area is 84

Answer 2

Given :

The sides of a parallelogram,

Base, a = $12 \ cm$

Height, b = $17 \ cm$

To Find :

The Area of parallelogram = ?

The perimeter of parallelogram = ?

Solution :

As we know,

The Area of parallelogram = base × height

On putting the given values in the above formula, we get

Area = $12\times 7$

        = $84 \ cm^2$

and,

The Perimeter of parallelogram = $2(a+b)$

On putting the given values in the above formula, we get

Perimeter = $2(12+7)$

                = $2\times 19$

                = $38 \ cm$

So,

The Area of parallelogram = $84 \ cm^2$

The Perimeter of parallelogram = $32 \ cm$
