Answer 1

Question 1: Option D

Area of the parallelogram = 132 cm²

Question 2: Option B

Area of the parallelogram = 3.60 ft²

Solution:

Question 1:

Base of the parallelogram = 6 + 5 = 11 cm

Height of the parallelogram = 12 cm

Area of the parallelogram = Base × Height

                                           = 11 × 12

Area of the parallelogram = 132 cm²

Option D is the correct answer.

Question 2:

Base of the parallelogram = 1.9 + 0.5 = 2.4 ft

Height of the parallelogram = 1.5 ft

Area of the parallelogram = Base × Height

                                           = 2.4 × 1.5

Area of the parallelogram = 3.60 ft²

Option B is the correct answer.
