Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The base of the parallelogram is 13 13 cm.
2. The height corresponding to the base is 6 6 cm.
3. The slanted side is not needed for calculating the area.

STEP 2

1. Recall the formula for the area of a parallelogram.
2. Substitute the given values.
3. Calculate the area.

STEP 3

Recall the formula for the area of a parallelogram:
A=Base×Height A = \text{Base} \times \text{Height}

STEP 4

Substitute the given values into the formula:
A=Base×Height A = \text{Base} \times \text{Height} =13 cm×6 cm = 13 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm}

STEP 5

Calculate the product:
A=13 cm×6 cm A = 13 \text{ cm} \times 6 \text{ cm} =78 cm2 = 78 \text{ cm}^2
The area of the parallelogram is:
78 cm2 \boxed{78 \text{ cm}^2}
