STEP 1

What is this asking? We need to find the area of a bunch of parallelograms, given their bases and heights! Watch out! Don't mix up the base and height, and make sure to use the correct units!

STEP 2

1. Parallelogram 1
2. Parallelogram 2
3. Parallelogram 4
4. Parallelogram 5

STEP 3

Alright, for the *first* parallelogram, we're given that the **base** is b=8 cmb = 8 \text{ cm} and the **height** is h=12 cmh = 12 \text{ cm}.
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is *base* times *height*!

STEP 4

So, let's **calculate** the area: Area=bh=8 cm12 cm=96 cm2 \text{Area} = b \cdot h = 8 \text{ cm} \cdot 12 \text{ cm} = 96 \text{ cm}^2 Remember, centimeters times centimeters gives us **square centimeters**!

STEP 5

For parallelogram number *two*, the **base** is b=23 cmb = 23 \text{ cm} and the **height** is h=15 cmh = 15 \text{ cm}.
We'll use the *same formula* as before: area equals base times height!

STEP 6

Let's **multiply**: Area=bh=23 cm15 cm=345 cm2 \text{Area} = b \cdot h = 23 \text{ cm} \cdot 15 \text{ cm} = 345 \text{ cm}^2 Boom! 345 cm2345 \text{ cm}^2 – that's our **area**!

STEP 7

Now, for parallelogram *four*, we have a **base** of b=14 cmb = 14 \text{ cm} and a **height** of h=13 cmh = 13 \text{ cm}.
We're getting really good at this area formula now!

STEP 8

**Calculate** the area: Area=bh=14 cm13 cm=182 cm2 \text{Area} = b \cdot h = 14 \text{ cm} \cdot 13 \text{ cm} = 182 \text{ cm}^2 Another one down!

STEP 9

Last but not least, parallelogram *five* has a **base** of b=3 mb = 3 \text{ m} and a **height** of h=10 mh = 10 \text{ m}.
Notice that the units are in **meters** this time!

STEP 10

Let's **find** the area: Area=bh=3 m10 m=30 m2 \text{Area} = b \cdot h = 3 \text{ m} \cdot 10 \text{ m} = 30 \text{ m}^2 And that's 3030 **square meters**!

STEP 11

Parallelogram 1: 96 cm296 \text{ cm}^2 Parallelogram 2: 345 cm2345 \text{ cm}^2 Parallelogram 4: 182 cm2182 \text{ cm}^2 Parallelogram 5: 30 m230 \text{ m}^2
