Question

The area of the parallelogram shown is 36 MM2. What is the perimeter?

Answer 1

The area of a parallelogram is given by \[A=b \times h\]where b is the base and h is the height. The area and height are given so you must solve for the base. Once you have the base length, the perimeter is given by \[P=2(b+s)\]where b is the base and s is the slant.
