A parallelogram with adjacent sides of unequal length is known as an oblique parallelogram. In this type of parallelogram, the opposite sides are still parallel and equal in length, but the adjacent sides are not. The angles between the unequal sides are also not right angles, making it different from a rectangle or square. The area of an oblique parallelogram can be calculated using the formula: base x height.

The area of a parallelogram (even with unequal adjacent sides) is still the base times the height. But the height is not the length of a side but the distance (at right angles to the base) between the base and the side parallel to it.
