A) O 1/3 * BASE * HEIGHT
B) O 1/2 * BASE * HEIGHT
c) O BASE
D) OOR
BASE * HEIGHT
TRL​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a and b are the set of parallel sides of a parallelogram and h is the height, then based on the length of sides and height of it, the formula for its area is given by:

Area = Base × Height

A = b × h [sq.unit]

Example: If the base of a parallelogram is equal to 5 cm and the height is 3 cm, then find its area.

Solution: Given, length of base=5 cm and height = 3 cm

As per the formula, Area = 5 × 3 = 15 sq.cm

therefore ans is option (d) base×height
