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.
For a parallelogram, take the base times the height. For a trapezoid, take the smaller base and times it by the height.
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A = base x height, therefore the formula for the base is: base = A ÷ height base = 288in2 ÷ 12in base = 24in
The parallelogram has twice the area of the triangle if their bases are the same and their heights are the same. Area triangle = 1/2 base x height. Area parallelogram = base x height.
