The formula for the area of a parallelogram is heightxbasethe reason that that is the formula is because it has th same height on both sides and the base stays the same even if it was on a unique angle and that's how you get the area of a parallelogram.The area of a parallelogram is base time height.


Does a rhombus have equal adjacent angles?

Generally, no. A rhombus will have supplementary adjacent angles (i.e. adding up to 180 degrees). The only time where the adjacent angles will be equal is when they are 90 degrees which by the way is a square.
