Question

Find the area of the parallelogram.

69 cm2

345 cm2

276 cm2

180 cm2

Answer 1

For this case we must find the area of the parallelogram, knowing that by definition, it is given by:

`A = b * h`

Where:

• A: It is the area

• b: It's the base

• h: It's the height

In the figure we observe that the base of the parallelogram is 23cm, then,
`b = 23cm`. On the other hand, the height is 12cm, then,
`h = 12cm`. Substituting:

`A = 23\cm * 12\cm\\A = 276\ cm ^ 2`

Thus, the area of the parallelogram is
`A = 276\ cm ^ 2`

Answer:

`A = 276\ cm ^ 2`

Option C

Answer 2

276 cm^2

Explanation:

A = b*h

A = 23*12

A = 276
