The area of a parallelogram is 288 square inches If the height is 12 inches how long is the base?
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A = base x height, therefore the formula for the base is: base = A ÷ height base = 288in2 ÷ 12in base = 24in
How is the area of a parallelogram related to the area of a triangle with the same base and height?
The parallelogram has twice the area of the triangle if their bases are the same and their heights are the same. Area triangle = 1/2 base x height. Area parallelogram = base x height.
How do you get the area of a parallelogram that has two different height measurements?
The area of a parallelogram is the base times the height; the height must be measured perpendicular to the base. If you correctly measure the height perpendicular to the base and you get different measurements, then you are NOT dealing with a parallelogram.
What is the area of a parallelogram?
The Area of a parallelogram is Area=base times height.
How can you find the height of aparallelogram by using area and base?
You can find the height of a parallelogram given the area and base measures by working backwards from the area formula. The area of a parallelogram is found with the formula: Area = Base * Height To solve this equation for Height, we divide both sides by the base. Area / Base = (Base * Height) / Base Simplify: Area / Base = Height
