Front

What is a parallelogram?

Back

A parallelogram is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) with opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length.

Front

How do you find the height of a parallelogram if you know the area and the base?

Back

Height = Area ÷ base

Front

What is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 8 in and a height of 3 in?

Back

24 in²

Front

If a parallelogram has an area of 36 ft² and a base of 6 ft, what is the height?

Back

Height = 36 ft² ÷ 6 ft = 6 ft

Front

What are the properties of a parallelogram?

Back

Opposite sides are equal, opposite angles are equal, and the diagonals bisect each other.

Front

If the base of a parallelogram is doubled, how does that affect the area?

Back

The area doubles if the height remains the same.

Front

What happens to the area of a parallelogram if the height is halved?

Back

The area is also halved if the base remains the same.
