The width of a rectangle is the same as one of its sides. That is not [usually] the case for a parallelogram.
width times height
The area of a parallelogram is the length times the vertical height. In a rectangle, the vertical height is the same as the width so the area is length times width.
It is base times perpendicular height.
A rectangle or perhaps a parallelogram
Base times height. Just like a rectangle.
Because the area of a parallelogram is length times perpendicular height and the area of a rectangle is also length times perpendicular height
Rectangle Area of parallelogram = Base * Height Area of rectangle = Base * Height
Not necessarily. In fact, if a rectangle and parallelogram have the same base and height, their areas are equal.
width times height
The area of a parallelogram is the length times the vertical height. In a rectangle, the vertical height is the same as the width so the area is length times width.
YES. A square is a parallelogram and, its height is one of the sides. (Same goes for every rectangle, not only squares.)
For a parallelogram that is NOT a rectangle or square (i.e. a rhombus or rhomboid), multiply the base times the height. Draw a line through the parallelogram so that it is a large rectangle in the middle, and two small triangles to each side.Now you can see that the area of the parallelogram is the same as a rectangle of the same height and width. You must use the "height" (distance between top and bottom), not the length of the slanted sides.Area = base times height. (A=bh)Area = base*heightBase x height
The area of a parallelogram is base times perpendicular height With the dimensions given the perpendicular height of the rectangle will be greater than the parallelogram. Therefore the rectangle will have a greater area than the parallelogram.

Base times height. Just like a rectangle.
The area of a rectangle is simply length times width (l*w) while the area of a parallelogram is the base length times the height (b*h)
