The formula for the area of a parallelogram is heightxbase
the reason that that is the formula is because it has th same height on both sides and the base stays the same even if it was on a unique angle and that's how you get the area of a parallelogram.

Can a triangle have the same perimeter and area as a parallelogram?
I don't know about the relation in the perimeters of a triangle and a parallelogram but if a triangle is on the same base on which the parallelogram is and the triangle is between the same parallel lines of the parallelogram, then the area of the triangle will be half the area of the parallelogram. That is, area of a triangle = 1/2 area of a parallelogram if the triangle is on the same base and between the same parallel lines.
Why do the parallelogram and the rectangle have the same area?
a parallelogram is a tilted rectangle
How can you find the area of a parallelogram if you only know the side lengths?
The area of a parallelogram is equal to base times height. You can find the maximum area of a parallelogram by multiplying the length of a short side by the length of a long side. (This would be the area if the parallelogram were a rectangle.)You cannot know the area of a parallelogram if all you know is the length of the sides; you can only know the maximumpossible area. Imagine you slant the parallelogram a lot. The area will decrease, but the side lengths will stay the same.
What is the area of a parallelogram that has 11 ft and 9 .4 ft?
The lengths of the sides of a parallelogram is not enough information to determine its area.
What is the area for a small parallelogram?
The aea of a small parallelogram is small.To find out just how small the area is, you must specify how small the par'm is.
What is the area of a parallelogram?
The Area of a parallelogram is Area=base times height.
What is the formula to work out the area for a parallelogram?
Base times height. Just like a rectangle.
How do you work out an area of a shape?
The area of a rectangle is Base x Height and its the same thing as a parallelogram but the area of a triangle is Base x Height divided by 2 So unless its a parallelogram you just X all the sides.
How is the formula for the parallelogram related to the area formula of the rectangle?
The area formula for the parallelogram is related to the area formula for a rectangle because you can make the parallelogram into a rectangle to find the area.
What is the area of a parallelogram with these measurements?
Area of a parallelogram in square units = base*height
What is the approximate area of the parallelogram?
To find the area of a parallelogram, multiply the base by the height.
What happens to the area of a parallelogram when you double the height and the base?
The area of the parallelogram is quadrupled.
Can a triangle have the same perimeter and area as a parallelogram?
I don't know about the relation in the perimeters of a triangle and a parallelogram but if a triangle is on the same base on which the parallelogram is and the triangle is between the same parallel lines of the parallelogram, then the area of the triangle will be half the area of the parallelogram. That is, area of a triangle = 1/2 area of a parallelogram if the triangle is on the same base and between the same parallel lines.
What is the formula to work out the volume of a parallelogram?
height x base length. The area of a parallelogram is equal to the length of the base times the shortest distance to the opposite side.
How is the area of a triangle related to the area of a parallelogram?
If the heights and bases are the same, then the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.
What happens to the area of a parallelogram when you double both the height and the base?
The area of the parallelogram is quadrupled.
What is the area of a parallelogram 9mm x 7mm?
63mm2. The area of a parallelogram is just LxW.
