The dimensions of a parallelogram are given in centimeters.
four point five centimeters. five point five centimeters. six centimeters.
What is the area of the parallelogram in square centimeters?
33 cm
27 cm
16 cm
23 cm
It is impossible to determine the area of the parallelogram with the given dimensions. The height (or altitude) of the parallelogram is needed in order to calculate its area.
To find the area of a parallelogram, you can use the formula:
Area = base x height
In this case, the base of the parallelogram is given as 5.5 centimeters and the height is given as 6 centimeters.
Area = 5.5 cm x 6 cm
Area = 33 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the parallelogram is 33 cm².
