Question

Find the area of a parallelogram with base 5 cm and
altitude 4.2 cm.​

Answer 1

Question:-

Find the area of a parallelogram with base 5 cm and altitude 4.2 cm.

Answer:-

• The area of parallelogram is 21 cm²

To find:-

• Area of parallelogram

Solution:-

• Base of parallelogram = 5 cm
• Height (Altitude) of parallelogram = 4.2 cm

As we know,

$\large{ \boxed{ \mathfrak{area = b \times h}}}$

Where,

• b = base of parallelogram
• h = height of parallelogram

According to question,

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: area = 5 \times 4.2}$

$\large{ \tt : \implies \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: area = 21}$

Hence,

The area of parallelogram is 21 cm².

Answer 2

Given

• Base of the parallelogram = 5cm
• Height of the parallelogram = 4.2cm

⠀

To find

• Area of the parallelogram.

⠀

Solution

• We have base and height of the parallelogram and need to find the area.

⠀

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:\underline{\sf{\red{We\: know\: that}}}$

⠀

★ Area = Base × Height

⠀

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:\underline{\sf{\red{Calculating\: the\: area}}}$

⠀

→ Area = b × h

→ Area = 5 × 4.2

→ Area = 21 cm²

⠀

Hence,

• Area of the parallelogram is 21cm².
