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

35 square meters

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 7 meters and the height is 5 meters.
Let's substitute these two values into the formula for the area of a parallelogram and simplify.
A=bh
A= 7( 5)
A=35
The area of the parallelogram is 35 square meters.
