Question

if base and the corresponding altitude of a parallelogram are 20 cm and 25 CM respectively then find the area of the parallelogram

Answer 1

Area of a parallelogram = Base x Corresponding Altitude

                                      = 20 cm x 25 cm

                                      = 500 cm².

Answer 2

The area of the parallelogram is 500 cm².

Given : The base and the corresponding altitude of the parallelogram are 20cm and 25cm, respectively.

To find : The area of the parallelogram.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the area of the parallelogram)

Here, we will be using the mathematical formula for calculating the area of the parallelogram. Which is :

Area of the parallelogram = Base × Height

By putting the given values, we get :

Area of the parallelogram = 20 × 25 = 500 cm²

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the area of the parallelogram is 500 cm².
