Parallelogram Area
Formula
Area = base × height
Perimeter = 2 × (base + side)
The height is the perpendicular distance between the two parallel bases, not the slant side length.
Example Calculation
Parallelogram with base 8, height 5, and side 6.
- 01Area = 8 × 5 = 40
- 02Perimeter = 2 × (8 + 6) = 28
