Area = length*width
The area formula for the parallelogram is related to the area formula for a rectangle because you can make the parallelogram into a rectangle to find the area.
The formula for the area of a rectangle is length x breadth. In order to prove this works, work out an area of a rectangle using that formula.
Area of a rectangle: a = l * w
If the base is a rectangle, use the formula for the area of a rectangle.
The formula is for a square and rectangle is A=bh or A=lw
A = lw Area of a rectangle = length times width
In the formula for the rectangle, put the width equal to the length.

The area of a rectangle is length times width, expressed in square units.
Area of rectangle is l x b. Where l is length and b is breath of the rectangle.
