If you're building a garage like mine (which is not square to make the most use of the land available) you could use the area of a parallelogram when working out the amount of concrete to order for the base of the garage (knowing how thick the slab has to be).

Formula for unknown altitude of a parallelogram?
Hopefully you've been given the parallelogram's area. If so you can use the following formula: Area of parallelogram = base length x altitude therefore altitude = area of parallelogram (divided by) base length
When do you use area in the real world?
All area word problems are real life applications, meaning that you need to know it FOR real life, therefore you can always refer to them to see when.
What lengths do you use when finding area of parallelogram?
Square metre
What are the formula will you use to find the area of parallelogram?
Area = Base x Height A = B x H
How is the formula for the area of trapezoid related to the formula for the area of a parallelogram?
They both use perpendicular height and are in square units. Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height
How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to the formula for a area of a parallelogram?
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is a combination of the formulas for the areas of a triangle and a rectangle. It can be seen as two congruent triangles placed together to form a parallelogram. So, the formula for the area of a parallelogram is a generalization of the formula for the area of a trapezoid.
What is the use of pi in real life?
we do not regularly use pi in our everyday life. But suppose you some how end up one day painting a cylindrical room. You will have to use pi to find out the circumference or surface area of the room you will have to use pi to figure out how much area you will have to paint
When would you use area or perimeter of a triangle in real life?
in construction in engineering say you had a triangular garden and you wanted to turf it
How do you find the area of a parallelogram?
For a parallelogram that is NOT a rectangle or square (i.e. a rhombus or rhomboid), multiply the base times the height. Draw a line through the parallelogram so that it is a large rectangle in the middle, and two small triangles to each side.Now you can see that the area of the parallelogram is the same as a rectangle of the same height and width. You must use the "height" (distance between top and bottom), not the length of the slanted sides.Area = base times height. (A=bh)Area = base*heightBase x height
