Mrs. Brown has a flower garden in the shape of a parallelogram. The length of the base of the garden is 9.5 feet and the height is 4.2 feet. What is the area of the flower garden?

Respuesta :

Area of flower garden is 39.9 square feet

Solution:

Given that, flower garden in the shape of a parallelogram

The length of the base of the garden is 9.5 feet and the height is 4.2 feet

To find the area of a parallelogram, multiply the base by the height

The formula for area of parallelogram is:

[tex]Area = base \times height[/tex]

From given,

Base = 9.5 feet

Height = 4.2 feet

Substituting the values in formula,

[tex]Area = 9.5 \times 4.2\\\\Area = 39.9[/tex]

Thus area of flower garden is 39.9 square feet
