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.
It is base x height for the parallelogram. That is twice the area of a triangle which is: 1/2 base x height. (Base and height being the same for both cases).
If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.
The side of a triangle or parallelogram used to help find area is called the base. Area is base times height in a parallelogram. In a triangle, it is 1/2 times base times height.
Parallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*HeightParallelogram = Base*Height Triangle = 0.5*Base*Height
Because base times height = the area of a parallelogram and a triangle's area is half that of the parallelogram that the triangle exactly fits into.
Area of a triangle = 0.5*base*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height
It is base x height for the parallelogram. That is twice the area of a triangle which is: 1/2 base x height. (Base and height being the same for both cases).
If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.
If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.
The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height. So the area of a parallelogram will always be 2 times bigger than a triangle with the same base and height.
The side of a triangle or parallelogram used to help find area is called the base. Area is base times height in a parallelogram. In a triangle, it is 1/2 times base times height.

twice the area of the triangle with the same base an height.
Area circle: π × radius² Area triangle: ½ × base × height Area Parallelogram: base × height Area: Rectangle: length × width In a triangle, the base is any side between two vertices and the height is the perpendicular distance from this side to the third vertex. In a parallelogram the base is any side. The height is the perpendicular distance between this side and the side parallel to it.
Because the area of a triangle = 0.5*base*height
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
