Exercise 1 Page 333

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

500yd^2

Practice makes perfect

The area of a parallelogram is the product of its base and its height. In the given parallelogram, the length of the base is 25 yards and the height is 20 yards. Let's see the diagram!

Let's substitute these two values into the formula for the area of a parallelogram and simplify.

A=bh

b= 25, h= 20

A= 25( 20)

Multiply

A=500

The area of the parallelogram is 500 square yards.
