Exercise 32 Page 562

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

35cm^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 7 centimeters and the height is 5 centimeters.

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 centimeters.
