What is Area of parallelogram?
The area of a parallelogram refers to the total number of unit squares that can fit into it and it is measured in square units (like cm2, m2, in2, etc). It is the region enclosed or encompassed by a parallelogram in two-dimensional space.
- two equal, opposite sides,
- two intersecting and non-equal diagonals, and
- opposite angles that are equal
The area of a parallelogram can be calculated by multiplying its base with the altitude. The base and altitude of a parallelogram are perpendicular to each other. The formula to calculate the area of a parallelogram can thus be given as,
Area of parallelogram = b × h square units
where,
b is the length of the base
h is the height or altitude
Given:
base= 12 in
height= 3 in
Area of parallelogram,
= base * height
=12* 3
= 36 in²
