How do you get the area of a parallelogram that has two different height measurements?
The area of a parallelogram is the base times the height; the height must be measured perpendicular to the base. If you correctly measure the height perpendicular to the base and you get different measurements, then you are NOT dealing with a parallelogram.
The height of a parallelogram is the length of its?
The height is the length of its altitude.
If a parallelogram has an area of 115 square units and a base length of 12 what is the height of the parallelogram to the nearest hundredth?
To find the height of a parallelogram, you divide the area by the base length. So in this case, the height of the parallelogram would be 115/12 = 9.58 to the nearest hundredth.
How do you find the area of a parallelogram or trapezoid?
For a parallelogram, take the base times the height. For a trapezoid, take the smaller base and times it by the height.
When calculating area what are the similarities between triangles and parallelogram?
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
