A parallelogram has a base of 4 m and a height of 3m. What is the area of the parallelogram in square centimeters?

Respuesta :

Hello!

1 m = 100 cm

That means that 3 m = 300 cm, and 4 m = 400 cm.

Now that we know what the base and height are in cm, we must use the formula for area of a parallelogram to find the area:

FORMULA:

A = bh

SUBSTITUTE:

A = 400 × 300

A = 120,000

The area the parallelogram is 120,000 square cm.

(Put a small 2 above cm, instead of writing 'Square').
