To find the area of a parallelogram, you use this simple formula:
Area = Base × Height
You just need to multiply the length of the bottom side (base) by the vertical height. Let's solve each problem step-by-step.
1.
* Base: 7 cm
* Height: 6 cm
* Calculation: $7 \times 6 = 42$
* Area:
42 cm²
2.
* Base: 6 mm
* Height: 5 mm
* Calculation: $6 \times 5 = 30$
* Area:
30 mm²
3.
* Base: 4 m
* Height: 7 m
* Calculation: $4 \times 7 = 28$
* Area:
28 m²
4.
* Base: 8 m
* Height: 2 m
* Calculation: $8 \times 2 = 16$
* Area:
16 m²
5.
* Base: 10 cm
* Height: 8 cm
* Calculation: $10 \times 8 = 80$
* Area:
80 cm²
6.
* Base: 5 mm
* Height: 6 mm
* Calculation: $5 \times 6 = 30$
* Area:
30 mm²
7.
* Base: 12 m
* Height: 10 m
* Calculation: $12 \times 10 = 120$
* Area:
120 m²
8.
* Base: 1 km
* Height: 3 km
* Calculation: $1 \times 3 = 3$
* Area:
3 km²
9.
* Base: 20 cm
* Height: 10 cm
* Calculation: $20 \times 10 = 200$
* Area:
200 cm²
Final Answer:
1. 42 cm²
2. 30 mm²
3. 28 m²
4. 16 m²
5. 80 cm²
6. 30 mm²
7. 120 m²
8. 3 km²
9. 200 cm²
