How can you use the area of a parallelogram to find the area of a corresponding trapezoid?
To find the area of a trapezoid using the area of a corresponding parallelogram, you can draw a line parallel to one of the bases of the trapezoid that extends to form a parallelogram. The area of the parallelogram is calculated using the formula (A = \text{base} \times \text{height}). Since the trapezoid shares the same height and one pair of parallel sides with the parallelogram, you can find the area of the trapezoid by subtracting the area of the triangular sections outside the trapezoid from the area of the parallelogram. This approach effectively utilizes the relationship between the two shapes to derive the trapezoid's area.

How area of parellogram help find area of trapezoid?
A parallelogram is a degenerate trapezoid: as the longer of the parallel sides of a trapezoid shrinks to the length of the shorter parallel side, the trapezoid becomes a parallelogram. It is truer to say that the area of a trapezoid helps to find the area of a parallelogram: area_trapezoid = mean_average_of_parallel_sides x distance_between_them = 1/2 sum_parallel_side_lengths x distance_between_them When the parallel sides are of equal length this becomes: area = (1/2 x 2 x length_of_parallel_sides) x distance_between_them = length_of_parallel_sides x distance_between_them = area_parallelogram
