Question

#2 figure: parallelogram with top/bottom sides 4m, left/right sides 8m, vertical dashed height 10.8m area: ______

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the area formula for a parallelogram

The area \( A \) of a parallelogram is given by the formula \( A = base \times height \).

Step2: Identify the base and height

From the diagram, the base \( b = 4 \, \text{m} \) and the height \( h = 10.8 \, \text{m} \).

Step3: Calculate the area

Substitute the values into the formula: \( A = 4 \times 10.8 \).
\( 4 \times 10.8 = 43.2 \)

Answer:

\( 43.2 \, \text{square meters} \)
