A formula is needed to find the area of a parallelogram. It is a very simple formula which notates Area = base x height.
You can find the height of a parallelogram given the area and base measures by working backwards from the area formula. The area of a parallelogram is found with the formula: Area = Base * Height To solve this equation for Height, we divide both sides by the base. Area / Base = (Base * Height) / Base Simplify: Area / Base = Height
Area = length*perpendicular height
To find the area of a parallelogram you have to multiply the base by the height. Therefore A=17∙13. Find the product of 17 and 13 which is 221. A=221. Therefore the area of the parallelogram is 221u(for units)2.
