What is the area of a parallelogram and how does it compare to a rectangle

The video tutorial begins with an introduction to the concept of calculating the area of a parallelogram. The teacher reviews the formula for finding the area of a rectangle, which is length times width, and explains that the same principle applies to parallelograms using base times height. Through a visual demonstration, the teacher shows how a parallelogram can be transformed into a rectangle by rearranging its parts. The session concludes with a brief introduction to solving a problem related to the topic.
