base*perpendicular height = area in square units
Chat with our AI personalities
They both use perpendicular height and are in square units. Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height
The formula for area of a parallelogram is bh. Base times height.
Assuming that you are asking about the formula for the AREA of a parallelogram (there is no formula for a parallelogram), A = bh where A is the "area", b is the length of any side (called a "base"), and h is the "height" measured perpendicular from that base to the opposite side.
booty.
P = 2a + 2b Where a & b are the sides of the parallelogram.
