Question

find the perimeter and area of the figure below.
(figure of a parallelogram with base 40, height 10, and side length 15)
perimeter =
area =

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate Perimeter of Parallelogram

A parallelogram has opposite sides equal. So perimeter formula is \( P = 2\times (a + b) \), where \( a = 40 \), \( b = 15 \).
\( P = 2\times(40 + 15) = 2\times55 = 110 \)

Step2: Calculate Area of Parallelogram

Area formula for parallelogram is \( A = base\times height \), base \( = 40 \), height \( = 10 \).
\( A = 40\times10 = 400 \)

Answer:

Perimeter = 110
Area = 400
