The area of a parallelogram is its base times its height.
In this case any two numbers that multiply to give 40 units would do (1x40, 2x20, 4x10, etc.) Each of these sets could be bxh. There is no unique answer.
The problem comes in when you have to calculate the perimeter when the sides of a parallelogram do not meet at 90o to form a rectangle or square. In that simple case the two multiples are the length of the sides.
For parallelograms with sides which are not square the length of the slanted side can be calculated from:
sine A = opposite/hypotenuse where A id the angle that the sides meet and opposite is the height calculated in the first case. The hypotenuse is the length of the slanted side.
There are infinitely many possible answers. Select any number B and let H = 40/B Then a parallelogram with base B and height H has an area of B*H = B*40/B = 40 square units. Since the choice of B was arbitrary, there are an infinity of possible answers.
40 Area= half of base times hieght 8x10= 80 80Divided by 2 is 40
The answer is 3600 cubic feet.

a 2D figure you multiply the length by the height. in a 3d object you multiply the length times the width times the height orDecide what type of shape the object is. This will determine the area formula that you will use.Step 2 Find the area of a square or rectangle by multiplying the length times the width. This formula looks like l*w. If the length is 5 and the width is 2, the area is 10 square units.Step 3 Calculate the area of a four-sided shape that is not a rectangle by multiplying the base (one of the sides) by the height. The height is a line drawn from the top of the shape to the base forming a right angle with the base. If the base is 10 and the height is 4, the area is 40 square units.Step 4 Find the area of a triangle by multiplying the base times the height and then dividing it by two. The base can be any side of the triangle, and the height is the measurement from that base to the vertex above it. This formula looks like (b*h)/2 or ½ b*h and is derived from the fact that a triangle is half of a four-sided shape. If the base is 10 and the height is 4, the area is 20 square units.Step 5 Determine the area of a circle by squaring the radius and multiplying it by pi, or 3.14. This formula looks like pi*r^2. If the radius is 5, the area is 78.5 square units.Step 6 Find surface area of a three dimensional shape by finding the area of each face separately using the above formulas, and then adding these areas together.
The base can be any non-negative number, with the height then being 40/base.
Area of parallelogram = base x height ⇒ area = 5 ft x 8 ft = 40 ft2
These are incredibly easy to generate on your own.Do it like this:-- Pick any number at all. That's the base of the parallelogram.-- Divide 40 by your number. That's the height of the parallelogram.-- The area of the parallelogram is 40 square units.
If it's a triangle, then the area is 20.If it's a rectangle, then the area is 40.If it's a parallelogram, then the area depends on how squashed it is.Each of these figures has a base and a height.
40 inches no. that is not right your area is 60 square inches; watch your units area = base x height height = area / base height = 60/20 = 3 inch
4 inches Area= 1/2(base)(height)
area of triangle = 0.5 x base x height area = 0.5 x 20 x 40 area = 400 ft2
There are infinitely many possible answers. Select any number B and let H = 40/B Then a parallelogram with base B and height H has an area of B*H = B*40/B = 40 square units. Since the choice of B was arbitrary, there are an infinity of possible answers.
Area= 1/2 x base x height So, 40 squared= 1/2 x 20x h 40 squared= 10h 40/10=10h/10 4 = height
The area is 40 square feet. To find the area of any triangle... Divide the base by 2, then multiply by the height.
40 Area= half of base times hieght 8x10= 80 80Divided by 2 is 40
area of triangle: area equals base times height devided by two! a=bxh/2 a=40in b=20in THE ANSWER IS 4in as the height!
