Does the choice of the base change the area of the parallelogram?
The choice of the base of a parallelogram does change the area because the base is always the bottom line of parallelogram.
Why does the choice of the base change the perimeter of a parallelogram?
It does not. The perimeter of a parallelogram is a characteristic of the parallelogram. The orientation: which side is considered a base makes do difference whatsoever.
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
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.
Any side of a parallelogram can be what?
the base :)
