As soon as you enter the required input value(s), the Parallelogram Area is calculated immediately, and displaed in the output section (present under input section).
Formula
To calculate the parallelogram area, you can use the following formula.
\(A = \) \( b h \)
where
Calculation
Once you enter the input values in the calculator, the output parameters are calculated.
Examples
The following examples cover how to calcualte the Area when base, and height are given.
1. What is the Area of Parallelogram whose base is 20 units, and height is 10 units?
Answer
Given:
base, b = 20 units
height, h = 10 units
The formula to find the Area of a Parallelogram is:
A = \( b h \)
Substitute given values in the above formula.
A = \(20\times10\)
A = 200 square units
∴ Area, A = 200 square units
2. What is the Area of Parallelogram whose base is 1 units, and height is 0.5 units?
Answer
Given:
base, b = 1 units
height, h = 0.5 units
The formula to find the Area of a Parallelogram is:
