What is the formula for calculating the area of a parallelogram?

Back

Area = base × height

Front

If the base of a parallelogram is 4 m and the height is 3 m, what is the area?

Back

Area = 4 m × 3 m = 12 m²

Front

What is the formula for calculating the area of a triangle?

Back

Area = (base × height) / 2

Front

If the base of a triangle is 6 cm and the height is 5 cm, what is the area?

Back

Area = (6 cm × 5 cm) / 2 = 15 cm²

What is the area of a triangle with a base of 8 in and a height of 4 in?

Back

Area = (8 in × 4 in) / 2 = 16 in²

Front

What is the significance of units in area calculations?

Back

Units indicate the measurement of area, such as cm², m², or in², and must be consistent.
