Question

A pattern on a quilt is made up of pieces of fabric in the shape of parallelograms. One piece of fabric is shown. What is the area of one piece of fabric? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

By definition, the area of a parallelogram is given by:
A = (1/2) * (b) * (h)
Where,
b: base of the parallelogram
h: height of the parallelogram
Substituting values we have:
A = (1/2) * (3.1 + 3.3) * (4.1)
A = 13.12 cm ^ 2
Answer:
The area of one piece of fabric is:
A = 13.12 cm ^ 2
