A parallelogram has base 65 m and perpendicular height 6 m. Find its area.
Note
Area of a parallelogram = base × perpendicular height. Here, 65 × 6 = 390, so the area is 390 square m. A parallelogram can be rearranged into a rectangle without changing its area, so base × perpendicular height works. The slanted side is not used unless it is the given base or part of a perimeter question. So the correct choice is 390 m².
