If this parallelogram is cut along the dotted line, the pieces can be rearranged to form a rectangle:
Complete the table to find the area of the rectangle.
$\text{Area of rectangle }$Area of rectangle | $=$= | $\text{length }\times\text{width }$length ×width | cm2 | |
$A$A | $=$= | $\editable{}\times\editable{}$× | cm2 | (Fill in the values for the length and width) |
$A$A | $=$= | $\editable{}$ | cm2 | (Complete the multiplication to find the area) |
Now find the area of the parallelogram.
Consider the following parallelogram.
By rearranging the parallelogram into a rectangle, find its area.
