Exercise 3 Page 295

To find the area, calculate the product of the base and the height.

255mi^2

Practice makes perfect

The area of a parallelogram is the product of its base and its height. In the given parallelogram, we can see that the base is 17 miles and its height is 15 miles.

We can substitute these two values into the formula for the area of a parallelogram and simplify.

A=bh
SubstituteII

b= 17, h= 15

A= 17( 15)
Multiply

Multiply

A=255

The area of the parallelogram is 255 square miles.
