A parallelogram’s area is given by A = base × height. Unlike rectangles, a parallelogram’s sides can be slanted, but the height is always measured perpendicular to the base. For instance, if the base is 10 cm and the perpendicular height is 5 cm, the area is 10 × 5 = 50 cm². This formula is crucial in tasks ranging from designing slanted roofs to analyzing cross-sections in engineering. Knowing parallelogram area also aids in understanding more advanced figures like trapezoids and composite shapes. Mastering this concept offers a solid platform for both academic geometry and practical building projects.
