Example Question #3 : How To Find The Area Of A Parallelogram In Pre Algebra

A parallelogram has a base which is feet long and another side of feet. The height of the parallelogram is feet. What is the area of the parallelogram?

Possible Answers:

$12\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

$30\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

$15\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

$20\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

$24\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

Correct answer:

$24\ \textup{ft}^{2}$

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is:

$Area = base \cdot height$

We know that that base of this parallelogram is feet and the height is feet. Thus, by this formula we have that:

$Area = 6 \cdot4 = 24$ feet squared.

Example Question #721 : High School Math

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

Possible Answers:

104

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The equation for the area of a triangle is

$A=\frac{1}{2}(Base)(Height)$

We plug the base of and the height of into the equation to get

$A=\frac{1}{2}(8)(13)$

We then multiply to get the answer of .

Example Question #443 : Pre Algebra

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

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is half of the base times the height: $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

Plug in our given information and solve:

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

$A=\frac{1}{2}*8*7$

A=28

Example Question #3 : How To Find The Area Of A Triangle In Pre Algebra

If a triangle has an area of and a base of , what is the height?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is half of the base times the height: $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

Plug in our given information and solve:

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

$44=\frac{1}{2}*11*h$

Multiply both sides by to get rid of the $\frac{1}{2}$ :

88=11*h

Divide both sides by :

$\frac{88}{11}=h$

8=h
