The dimensions of a parallelogram are given in centimeters.
four point five centimeters h. five point five centimeters. six centimeters b.
What is the area of the parallelogram in square centimeters?
a 33 cm
b 27 cm
c 16 cm
d 23 cm
The area of a parallelogram is given by multiplying the base (b) by the height (h). In this case, the base is given as 6 cm and the height is given as 4.5 cm.
Area = b x h = 6 cm x 4.5 cm = 27 cm^2
Therefore, the answer is (b) 27 cm.
To find the area of a parallelogram, we can use the formula: Area = base x height.
In this case, the base of the parallelogram is given as 6 centimeters and the height is given as 4.5 centimeters.
So, the area of the parallelogram is calculated as follows:
Area = 6 cm x 4.5 cm
Area = 27 square cm
Therefore, the correct answer is option b) 27 cm.
