What is the perimeter (in cm) and area (in cm2) of the parallelogram shown in the figure? (All the values are given in cm)
Explanation:
∵ A parallelogram has its opposite sides equal in length, we have,
∴ AB = CD = 8 cm and AD = BC = 5 cm
Now, the perimeter of a parallelogram, P = AB + BC + CD + DA= 2 × (AB + BC)= 2 × (8 + 5) = 26 cm.
and Area of a parallelogram, A = Base × Height = CD × Height = 8 × 4 = 32 cm2
Hence, option (c).
