Question

What is the area of parallelogram abcd? HELP THIS IS TIMED​

Answer 1

13.04 square units

Explanation:

Since this is a parallelogram, we only need to solve for the sides of 2 sides.

We can use the distance formula.

The distance from A --> D :

A(3,6) and D(2,2)

2 - 3 = -1

-1^2 = 1

2 - 6 = -4

-4^2 = 16

1 + 16 = 17

`√(17)`

The distance from A --> B :

A(3,6) and B(6,5)

6 - 3 = 3

3^2 = 9

5 - 6 = -1

-1^2 = 1

9 + 1 = 10

`√(10)`

Multiply.

`√(10)*√(17)=13.04`
