To figure out the area of a parallelogram, we need to identify its formula. However, I do know the formula, which is Area = Base x Height.
Area = Base x Height
Area = 8 x 12
= 96 cm squared
Therefore, the answer it 96 cm squared. By the way, I recommend that you review and comprehend the topic regarding area. Try memorizing all formulas for the shapes.
Rectangle & Square: Area = length x width
Triangle: Area = base x height
2
Trapezoid: Area = (Base 1 + Base 2) x h
2
Pararellogram: Area = base x height
Circle: Area = pi x r sqaured
Those are all the formulas I can recall; however, there might be more.
