Question

Find the area of each parallelogram plz help

Answer 1

Answer: The area of the parallelogram is:
_______________________________________________________

`(9393)/(8)` in² = 1174 ⅛ in² = 1174.125 in² .

Step-by-step explanation:
_______________________________________________________
Area of a parallelogram:
_______________________________________________________
A = base * height = b * h ;

From the figure (from the actual "question"):
_______________________________________
b = 50.5 in.

h = 23.25 in.
____________________________________________________________
Method 1) A = b * h =

= (50.5 in) * (23.25 in) = 1174.125 in² ; or, write as: 1174 ⅛ .
____________________________________________________________
Method 2) A = b * h =

= (50 ½ in) * (23 ¼ in) =

= (
`(101)/(2)` in) * (
`(93)/(4)` in) ;
___________________________________________________________
Note: "50 ½ " = [(50*2) + 1 ] / 2 =
`(101)/(2)` ;

Note: "23 ¼ " = [(23*4) + 1 ] / 4 =
`(93)/(4)` ;
____________________________________________________________
→ A = (
`(101)/(2)` in) * (
`(93)/(4)` in) ;

→ A =
`((101*93))/((2*4))` in² =
`(9393)/(8)` in² ;

→ A = (9393/8) in² =

→ A =
`(9393)/(8)` in² = 1174 ⅛ in² = 1174.125 in² .
