Yes, but keep in mind that with a rectangle, the "height" of it is the same as the length of one of the sides.
But with a paralellogram, the "height" is going to be less than one of the sides, because the walls are leaning over, not standing straight up. So you have to either be given the "height" in the problem or you have to calculate it.

A parallelogram and the area of a what have the same formula for area?
rectangle
Is a rectangle also a paralellogram?
Think of it, a rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides like a paralellogram and they both have 2 pairs of 2 parralell sides So i guess they are the same
What is shape has same area formula as a rectangle?
A square would have the same formula for area as a rectangle: Area = length x width. Both figures have four right angles.
How could you use the formula for area of a rectangle to find the formula for the area of a triangle?
A traingle covers half the area of a rectangle with the same base and [perpendicular] height.
Why the formula to find the area of a parallelogram is the same as the formula to find the area of a rectangle?
of course base times height for a square or rectangle. but for a trapezoid a= h x "b1+b2"

What is the formula for fixed area of a rectangle?
Area rectangle = length x width (using same units).

How are a rectangle and a parallelogram the same?
A rectangle is a parallelogram since it is a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides. A rectangle is just a specific type of parallelogram. Paralellogram = Parallel sides have equal length
How would finding the area of a square be the as finding the area of a rectangle?
Squares are rectangles so the formula for area will stay the same.
Does a square have an area?
yes the formula is L x 2 you work it out the same as you would a rectangle
What is the formula for a rectangle prism for kids?
same as a rectangle, except multiply by height. Area of Base X Height or L*W*H
Is area the same with perimeter?
perimeter is different from area because example is in rectangle from formula until you get the answer you can easily see the difference
What is the formula for the area of a parrellogram?
Same as rectangle: base x height. However, the height has to be perpendicular to the base.
