We reviewed how to find the perimeter and the area of any parallelogram. To find the perimeter, add the lengths of the four sides together. To find the area, multiply the base measurement and the height. Be sure to use the correct labels! Perimeter labels are in units, while area labels include square units.
We looked at four different ways to determine the area of a parallelogram:
Use the formula: A = bh
Rearrange the parallelogram into a rectangle, and then count the number of squares inside the rectangle.
Rearrange the parallelogram into a rectangle, and then use the formula A - lw
Count the number of squares inside the parallelogram.
