Area of Rectangles and Parallelograms

Front

What is the formula for the area of a rectangle?

Back

The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula: Area = length × width.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a parallelogram?

Back

The area of a parallelogram is calculated using the formula: Area = base × height.

Front

If a parallelogram has a base of 7 units and an area of 42 square units, what is its height?

Back

The height can be found using the formula: height = Area / base. Therefore, height = 42 / 7 = 6 units.

Front

What is the relationship between the area of a rectangle and a parallelogram?

Back

The area of a rectangle and a parallelogram can be calculated using similar formulas, as both are based on base and height.

Front

How do you calculate the area of a rectangular garden that is 9 m long and 4 m wide?

Back

Area = length × width = 9 m × 4 m = 36 m².

Front

What is the area of a rectangle with a length of 10 units and a width of 5 units?

Back

Area = length × width = 10 × 5 = 50 square units.

Front

What is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 8 units and a height of 3 units?

Back

Area = base × height = 8 × 3 = 24 square units.

Front

True or False: The area of a rectangle is always greater than the area of a parallelogram with the same base and height.

Back

False. The area can be equal if the base and height are the same.

Front

What is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 5 units and an area of 20 square units?

Back

The height can be calculated as height = Area / base = 20 / 5 = 4 units.

Front

If a rectangle has an area of 60 square units and a width of 6 units, what is its length?

Back

Length = Area / width = 60 / 6 = 10 units.
