Question

1. find the area of the parallelogram that has a base of 4 m and a height of 5.5 m.

a = 16 m²
a = 9.5 m²
a = 11 m²
a = 22 m²

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the area formula for a parallelogram

The area formula for a parallelogram is \(A = b\times h\), where \(b\) is the base and \(h\) is the height.

Step2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Given \(b = 4\space m\) and \(h=5.5\space m\), we substitute into \(A = b\times h\). So \(A=4\times5.5\).

Step3: Calculate the product

\(4\times5.5=(4\times5)+(4\times0.5)=20 + 2=22\)

Answer:

\(A = 22\space m^{2}\)
